AI agents call list_attestations to retrieve information from ComplyOS without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The name indicates a query operation that retrieves or enumerates attestation data without modification. No description is provided, which lowers confidence slightly, but the 'list_' prefix strongly suggests a read-only operation consistent with the compliance auditing context (querying compliance status).
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_attestations' suggests retrieval/enumeration of attestation records. The verb 'list' is a classic Read operation pattern.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
list_attestations. It is categorised as a Read tool in the ComplyOS MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the ComplyOS MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_attestations: 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 ComplyOS. Nothing to install.
list_attestations 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_attestations 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_attestations. 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_attestations is provided by the ComplyOS MCP server (simongonzalezdc/complyos). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
