list_packs
AI agents call list_packs to retrieve information from Remote MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool name indicates a listing/enumeration operation, which is a read-only retrieval action with no data modification or side effects. The empty description reduces confidence slightly, but the naming pattern and context of sibling tools strongly suggest this retrieves data without mutation. Classified as Read with low severity since it merely lists items.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_packs' suggests retrieving or enumerating a collection of items (packs). No description provided, but the naming convention aligns with query/retrieval operations. Sibling tools (get_*, search_*) are clearly Read operations on game/rules data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
list_packs. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Remote MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Remote MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_packs: 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 Remote MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_packs 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_packs 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_packs. 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_packs is provided by the Remote MCP Server MCP server (robertsapunarich/mcp-ose). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
