List terms in a project
AI agents call list_terms to retrieve information from POEditor 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 and queries existing terms from a POEditor project without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any side effects. It is a read-only operation that aligns with the Read category definition: 'retrieves or queries data; no side effects (search, list, get, fetch).'
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_terms' and description states 'List terms in a project' — a straightforward retrieval operation with no modification or deletion capability.

Register the POEditor MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_terms: 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 POEditor MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_terms 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_terms 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_terms. 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.
