Why goclaw_agent_links_list needs a policy

This tool queries and retrieves existing delegation link data for an agent. It performs a read-only operation that returns information about which agents a given agent can delegate to. There is no data creation, modification, deletion, or execution of commands. The blast radius is minimal - unauthorized reads of delegation metadata could reveal architectural information but cannot directly compromise systems or data.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'list' and description states 'List delegation links for an agent' - a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.

POLICY

How to control goclaw_agent_links_list

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and GoClaw MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for goclaw_agent_links_list:

policy.json

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

goclaw_agent_links_list is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register GoClaw MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
