Read-only. List the projects / folders in the store, each with its id and name. Call this first to discover the projectId you need for
AI agents call list_projects to retrieve information from Agentic Task System without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves a list of projects/folders without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is explicitly marked as read-only and serves a discovery purpose. No side effects or state changes are possible.
From the tool's definition Tool name: list_projects. Description states 'Read-only. List the projects / folders in the store, each with its id and name.'
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Read-only. List the projects / folders in the store, each with its id and name. Call this first to discover the projectId you need for. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Agentic Task System MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Agentic Task System MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_projects: 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 Agentic Task System. Nothing to install.
list_projects 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_projects 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_projects. 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_projects is provided by the Agentic Task System MCP server (renezander030/agentic-task-system). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
