Lists all the policies in the project. You can filter and sort the results using the provided parameters.
AI agents call list-policies to retrieve information from Openfort MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves and displays existing policies. It performs no modifications, deletions, or executions. The 'list' operation is purely read-only with filtering/sorting options, posing minimal risk.
From the tool's definition Lists all the policies in the project. You can filter and sort the results using the provided parameters.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Lists all the policies in the project. You can filter and sort the results using the provided parameters. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Openfort MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Openfort MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list-policies: 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 Openfort MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list-policies 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-policies 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-policies. 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-policies is provided by the Openfort MCP Server MCP server (openfort-xyz/-deprecated-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
