List all available OpenPrints products with their variants and prices. Use this to discover product IDs and variant SKUs before creating an order.
AI agents call list_products to retrieve information from OpenPrints MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns product catalog information. It has no capability to modify data, execute operations, or affect financial state. The most severe risk is information disclosure, which is minimal for a product catalog. Confidence is high because the intent and behavior are unambiguous.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_products' and description states it 'List all available OpenPrints products with their variants and prices' — a pure retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all available OpenPrints products with their variants and prices. Use this to discover product IDs and variant SKUs before creating an order. It is categorised as a Read tool in the OpenPrints MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the OpenPrints MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_products: 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 OpenPrints MCP. Nothing to install.
list_products 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_products 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_products. 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_products is provided by the OpenPrints MCP server (openprints/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
list_products is one line of OpenPrints's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
