WHAT IT DOES

What list_credentials does on Automagik Tools

AI agents call list_credentials to retrieve information from Automagik Tools without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why list_credentials is rated Low

This tool retrieves information about stored credentials but explicitly does not expose secrets, limiting its risk profile. While metadata about credentials could be reconnaissance information, the restriction to metadata-only access and exclusion of secrets keeps this in the Read category with low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'List all stored credentials (metadata only, no secrets)' - explicitly a read/query operation that retrieves metadata without returning sensitive data.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs list_credentials safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Automagik Tools, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For list_credentials, this is the rule to start with:

list_credentials Allowed

list_credentials is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_credentials": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Automagik Tools, apply this rule, and every list_credentials call is checked against it from then on.
