List all notification contact points
AI agents call list_contact_points to retrieve information from Grafana MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves notification contact point configurations from Grafana without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It is purely informational. While contact point information could be sensitive (revealing notification recipients), the impact of listing this data is limited to information disclosure; an AI misuse would expose contact details but not cause operational damage.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_contact_points' and description 'List all notification contact points' indicate a read-only retrieval operation. The verb 'list' and the absence of any modification language confirm this is a query operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all notification contact points. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Grafana MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Grafana MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_contact_points: 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 Grafana MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_contact_points 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_contact_points 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_contact_points. 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_contact_points is provided by the Grafana MCP Server MCP server (quanticsoul4772/grafana-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
