List all active conversation histories

How to control list_conversation_histories ↓

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

Low Risk

This tool retrieves metadata about existing conversation histories for informational purposes only. It has no side effects, does not modify or destroy data, and does not execute external operations or move money. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker could gain visibility into conversation metadata but cannot alter or damage the system. This is a standard Read operation.

From the tool's definition 'List all active conversation histories' indicates a query or retrieval operation that returns data without modifying or deleting it.

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

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

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

list_conversation_histories 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 Second Opinion MCP — 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.
