List all configured and available arr services
AI agents call arr_list_services to retrieve information from Arr Suite MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a simple enumeration/listing operation that queries the current state of configured services. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any actions—it only reads and returns information. The blast radius of misuse is minimal: an agent could learn what services are available, but cannot manipulate them with this tool alone. Therefore, it is classified as Read with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'arr_list_services' and description 'List all configured and available arr services' indicate retrieval of configuration data without modification or side effects.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Arr Suite MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for arr_list_services:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"arr_list_services": {}
}
}arr_list_services is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List all configured and available arr services. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Arr Suite MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Arr Suite MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for arr_list_services: 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 Arr Suite MCP Server. Nothing to install.
arr_list_services 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 arr_list_services 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 arr_list_services. 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.
arr_list_services is provided by the Arr Suite MCP Server MCP server (shaktech786/arr-suite-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Arr Suite MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
