What uxi_list_sensors does on API-Central
AI agents call uxi_list_sensors 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.
Why uxi_list_sensors is rated Low
This tool performs a query/list operation that retrieves existing sensor metadata. It has no side effects, creates no data, executes no commands, modifies nothing, and incurs no financial impact. The verb 'List' and the focus on reading sensor fields (identity, model, MAC, group, location) confirm this is a Read category tool with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'uxi_list_sensors' and description 'List UXI sensors with compact identity, model, MAC, group, and location fields' indicate a retrieval operation that returns sensor information without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs uxi_list_sensors 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 uxi_list_sensors, this is the rule to start with:
uxi_list_sensors is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect API-Central, apply this rule, and every uxi_list_sensors call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about uxi_list_sensors
List UXI sensors with compact identity, model, MAC, group, and location fields. It is categorised as a Read tool in the API-Central MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the API-Central MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for uxi_list_sensors: 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 API-Central. Nothing to install.
uxi_list_sensors 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 uxi_list_sensors 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 uxi_list_sensors. 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.
uxi_list_sensors is provided by the API-Central MCP server (secure-ssid/centralmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
