List all members of a state you belong to. Shows each member
AI agents call state_members to retrieve information from Networkselfmd without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns information about group membership without modifying state, executing code, deleting data, or involving financial transactions. The verb 'list' and the read-only nature of retrieving membership information clearly places it in the Read category.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'state_members' with description 'List all members of a state you belong to. Shows each member' indicates a retrieval operation with no modifications or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all members of a state you belong to. Shows each member. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Networkselfmd MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Networkselfmd MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for state_members: 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 Networkselfmd. Nothing to install.
state_members 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 state_members 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 state_members. 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.
state_members is provided by the Networkselfmd MCP server (selfmd/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
