Generate your AI Stack profile card showing all AI tools on your machine
AI agents call ai_stack_generate to retrieve information from Scan Your Ai Toolkit without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool scans the local machine to discover and display installed AI tools, producing a profile/report card. This is a read/enumeration operation with no side effects. Slight concern is that it inventories the local environment (potential privacy/recon implications), but it does not modify, execute, or delete anything. Severity is low as misuse is limited to information disclosure about the local AI tool setup.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Generate your AI Stack profile card showing all AI tools on your machine. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Scan Your Ai Toolkit MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Scan Your Ai Toolkit MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ai_stack_generate: 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 Scan Your Ai Toolkit. Nothing to install.
ai_stack_generate 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 ai_stack_generate 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 ai_stack_generate. 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.
ai_stack_generate is provided by the Scan Your Ai Toolkit MCP server (sakthivelchan89/scan_your_ai_toolkit). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
