List projects, optionally filtered by tags (AND) and/or owning role_id.
AI agents call list_projects to retrieve information from Nima Career without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and filters existing project data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It is a straightforward data query operation with no side effects, placing it firmly in the Read category with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_projects' and description 'List projects' indicates a retrieval operation with no modification. Filtering parameters (tags, role_id) are query criteria, not state-changing operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List projects, optionally filtered by tags (AND) and/or owning role_id. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Nima Career MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Nima Career MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_projects: 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 Nima Career. Nothing to install.
list_projects 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_projects 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_projects. 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_projects is provided by the Nima Career MCP server (nima-karami/nima-career-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
