AI agents call list_work_item_pages to retrieve information from Plane without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves data about pages associated with a work item. There are no modifications, deletions, executions, or financial implications. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only retrieve information already associated with a work item, which does not compromise system integrity or enable harmful actions.
From the tool's definition The tool name 'list_work_item_pages' and description 'List all pages linked to a work item' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'list' is explicitly a Read operation per the classification rules.

Register the Plane MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_work_item_pages: 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 Plane. Nothing to install.
list_work_item_pages 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_work_item_pages 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_work_item_pages. 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.
