Why list_suppliers needs a policy

This tool retrieves supplier/vendor information without altering data, triggering external actions, or committing financial obligations. The pagination cursor pattern confirms it is a simple query operation. Low severity reflects minimal harm if an AI agent lists suppliers—no data loss, operational disruption, or financial exposure.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'List suppliers' and 'view vendors and supply contacts' with 'paginated results via since_id cursor' — characteristic read-only retrieval patterns with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities.

How to control list_suppliers

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_suppliers": {}
  }
}

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

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