List all components in Strapi with pagination support. Components are reusable field groups that can be used across content types.
AI agents call list_components to retrieve information from Strapi Content MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only queries and retrieves metadata about Strapi components (reusable field groups). It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. The capability to list with pagination is a standard read-only discovery operation. Severity is low because retrieving structural metadata poses minimal risk even if misused by an agent.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'List all components' with 'pagination support' — a retrietary operation with no modifications or side effects. No create, update, delete, or execute semantics are present.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all components in Strapi with pagination support. Components are reusable field groups that can be used across content types. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Strapi Content MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Strapi Content MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_components: 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 Strapi Content MCP. Nothing to install.
list_components 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_components 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_components. 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_components is provided by the Strapi Content MCP server (paulbratslavsky/strapi-content-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
