list_assertions
AI agents call list_assertions to retrieve information from Mipiti MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'list_' prefix is characteristic of read-only retrieval operations in the security posture management domain. Given the context of Mipiti's threat modeling and compliance platform, listing assertions appears to be a query that returns security-related data without side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_assertions' indicates a retrieval operation. The empty description and pattern of sibling tools (add_* operations for creating/modifying security artifacts) suggest this tool queries existing assertions without modification.

list_assertions. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mipiti MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mipiti MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_assertions: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Mipiti MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_assertions is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the list_assertions rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for list_assertions. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
list_assertions is provided by the Mipiti MCP Server MCP server (mipiti/mipiti-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
