logdrain_list

Retrieves a list of all log drains

How to control logdrain_list ↓

AI agents call logdrain_list to retrieve information from Vercel 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 simple data retrieval operation that queries existing log drain configurations. It does not modify, delete, execute, or create any resources. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker could only view log drain information, which may have some informational value but poses no direct harm to systems or data integrity.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'logdrain_list' and description states it 'Retrieves a list of all log drains' - the verb 'Retrieves' combined with 'list' indicates a read-only query operation with no side effects.

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

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

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

logdrain_list 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 Vercel 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.
