List available scholarships. Optionally filter by provider.
AI agents call list_scholarships to retrieve information from UAAR University MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries scholarship data without creating, modifying, or deleting records. It is a straightforward read operation that returns information to support student decision-making. The optional filter parameter does not change its fundamental nature as a read-only query.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_scholarships' and description 'List available scholarships. Optionally filter by provider' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. No modification, deletion, or execution capabilities are described.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_scholarships gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and UAAR University MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_scholarships:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_scholarships": {}
}
}list_scholarships is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
