List Kubernetes services with type, cluster IP, external IP, and ports.
AI agents call k8s_services to retrieve information from RedisNexus without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves metadata about existing Kubernetes services without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It is purely informational and has no side effects. The blast radius of misuse is limited to potential information disclosure about cluster topology, justifying 'low' severity. High confidence due to clear read-only semantics in both name and description.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'k8s_services' and description 'List Kubernetes services with type, cluster IP, external IP, and ports' indicate data retrieval with no modifications.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List Kubernetes services with type, cluster IP, external IP, and ports. It is categorised as a Read tool in the RedisNexus MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the RedisNexus MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for k8s_services: 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 RedisNexus. Nothing to install.
k8s_services 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 k8s_services 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 k8s_services. 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.
k8s_services is provided by the RedisNexus MCP server (rajkumar-madhu/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
