List container images with optional filtering by page, page size, sort, and search query
AI agents call list_images to retrieve information from RAD Security without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a retrieval operation with filtering and pagination capabilities. It queries and returns container image information from the RAD Security system without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The parameters (page, page size, sort, search) are all used for refining query results, which is characteristic of a Read category tool.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_images' and description 'List container images with optional filtering by page, page size, sort, and search query' indicate a read-only query operation that retrieves container image data without modification, deletion, or execution.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_images gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and RAD Security, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_images:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_images": {}
}
} list_images is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List container images with optional filtering by page, page size, sort, and search query. It is categorised as a Read tool in the RAD Security MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the RAD Security MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_images: 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 RAD Security. Nothing to install.
list_images 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_images 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_images. 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_images is provided by the RAD Security MCP server (rad-security/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from RAD Security, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
