List available text models

How to control listTextModels ↓

AI agents call listTextModels to retrieve information from MCPollinations Multimodal MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool performs a read-only operation to list or enumerate available text generation models. It has no side effects, does not modify data, and does not execute code or trigger external operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only learn what models are available, with no ability to affect system state or resources.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'listTextModels' and description 'List available text models' indicate a query/enumeration operation that retrieves information about available models without modifying any data or triggering external effects.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access listTextModels gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MCPollinations Multimodal MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for listTextModels:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "listTextModels": {}
  }
}

listTextModels is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register MCPollinations Multimodal MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
