List records of a specific type
AI agents call list_records to retrieve information from Prowpt MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs data retrieval only. The verb 'list' is a classic read operation that queries existing records without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing code. No destructive or side-effect-inducing actions are possible. The low severity reflects minimal risk if misused by an AI agent—it can only expose existing data within the Prowpt system.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_records' and description 'List records of a specific type' indicate a query operation that retrieves data without modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List records of a specific type. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Prowpt MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Prowpt MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_records: 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 Prowpt MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_records 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_records 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_records. 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_records is provided by the Prowpt MCP Server MCP server (prowptai/prowpt-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Every MCP server has a record like this.
