WHAT IT DOES

What list_static_tags does on API-Central

AI agents call list_static_tags to retrieve information from API-Central without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why list_static_tags is rated Low

This tool queries and returns existing static tags without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. It is bounded retrieval of metadata about network device classification tags. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—an AI agent misusing this to list tags poses no risk of data loss, unauthorized changes, or unintended operations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_static_tags' and description 'List user-created static classification tags' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'list' is explicitly a Read operation per the classification rules.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs list_static_tags safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and API-Central, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For list_static_tags, this is the rule to start with:

list_static_tags Allowed

list_static_tags is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_static_tags": {}
  }

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect API-Central, apply this rule, and every list_static_tags call is checked against it from then on.

How do I block list_static_tags completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for list_static_tags. 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.
