List all projects. Summary mode includes current project tags for Agent reuse. Set verbose=true for full project data.
AI agents call list_projects to retrieve information from Roadmap Skill without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries project data without side effects. It is a pure read operation that returns project information in either summary or verbose format. There is no capability to modify, create, delete, or execute any operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only learn about existing projects, not affect them.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_projects' and description states it 'List[s] all projects' with options for 'Summary mode' or 'full project data' retrieval. No modification, deletion, or execution of external operations occurs.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_projects gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Roadmap Skill, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_projects:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_projects": {}
}
}list_projects is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List all projects. Summary mode includes current project tags for Agent reuse. Set verbose=true for full project data. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Roadmap Skill MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Roadmap Skill MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_projects: 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 Roadmap Skill. Nothing to install.
list_projects 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_projects 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_projects. 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_projects is provided by the Roadmap Skill MCP server (shiquda/roadmap-skill). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
