List relationships with optional filters
AI agents call list_relationships to retrieve information from DMCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves relationship data from the game state for display or inspection purposes. It has no side effects, does not create, modify, or delete any game entities, and does not execute external operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_relationships' combined with description 'List relationships with optional filters' indicates data retrieval without modification.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_relationships gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and DMCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_relationships:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_relationships": {}
}
} list_relationships is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List relationships with optional filters. It is categorised as a Read tool in the DMCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the D MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_relationships: 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 DMCP. Nothing to install.
list_relationships 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 list_relationships 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 list_relationships. 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.
list_relationships is provided by the D MCP server (shawnrushefsky/dmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from DMCP, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
