List all data files for a plugin stored on the server.
AI agents call plugin_list_data to retrieve information from Overlord MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves or queries information about plugin data files without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It is a read-only operation that lists existing data, fitting the Read category. Severity is low because listing files poses minimal risk; the blast radius of misuse is small—an agent could enumerate plugin data but not alter or delete it.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'plugin_list_data' and description 'List all data files for a plugin stored on the server' indicate a query/list operation with no modification capability.

List all data files for a plugin stored on the server. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Overlord MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Overlord MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for plugin_list_data: 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 Overlord MCP Server. Nothing to install.
plugin_list_data 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 plugin_list_data 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 plugin_list_data. 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.
plugin_list_data is provided by the Overlord MCP Server MCP server (skeeminator/overlord-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
