AI agents call campaigns_list to retrieve information from Meta without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves a list of ad campaigns from Meta's Graph API without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward query operation with no side effects. The read-only nature of the server and the GET HTTP method confirm this is a Read category tool with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool description specifies 'GET /act_{id}/campaigns' which is an HTTP GET request. Server description explicitly states 'Read-only MCP server'. Tool name 'campaigns_list' indicates data retrieval with no modification.

campaigns_list 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 campaigns_list 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 campaigns_list. 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.
