bugsnag_list_project_errors

// WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL

AI agents call bugsnag_list_project_errors to retrieve information from SmartBear MCP without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

// WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON BUGSNAG_LIST_PROJECT_ERRORS

Even though bugsnag_list_project_errors only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

// RECOMMENDED POLICY

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

What does the bugsnag_list_project_errors tool do? +

List and search errors in a project using customizable filters and pagination **Parameters:** - projectId (string): Unique identifier of the project. This is optional if a current project is set and is used to set the current project for BugSnag tools. - filters (record<string, array>): Apply filters to narrow down the error list. Use the List Project Event Filters tool to discover available filter fields. Time filters support extended ISO 8601 format (e.g. 2018-05-20T00:00:00Z) or relative format (e.g. 7d, 24h). (default: {"event.since":[{"type":"eq","value":"30d"}],"error.status":[{"type":"eq","value":"open"}]}) - sort (enum): Field to sort the errors by (default: "last_seen") - direction (enum): Sort direction for ordering results (default: "desc") - perPage (number): How many results to return per page. (default: 30) - nextUrl (string): URL for retrieving the next page of results. Use the value in the previous response to get the next page when more results are available. Only values provided in the output from this tool can be used. Do not attempt to construct it manually. **Use Cases:** 1. Debug recent application errors by filtering for open errors in the last 7 days 2. Generate error reports for stakeholders by filtering specific error types or severity levels 3. Monitor error trends over time using date range filters 4. Find errors affecting specific users or environments using metadata filters **Examples:** 1. Find errors affecting a specific user in the last 24 hours ```json { "filters": { "user.email": [ { "type": "eq", "value": "user@example.com" } ], "event.since": [ { "type": "eq", "value": "24h" } ] } } ``` Expected Output: JSON object with a list of errors in the 'data' field, a count of the current page of results in the 'count' field, and a total count of all results in the 'total' field 2. Get the 10 open errors with the most users affected in the last 30 days ```json { "filters": { "event.since": [ { "type": "eq", "value": "30d" } ], "error.status": [ { "type": "eq", "value": "open" } ] }, "sort": "users", "direction": "desc", "perPage": 10 } ``` Expected Output: JSON object with a list of errors in the 'data' field, a count of the current page of results in the 'count' field, and a total count of all results in the 'total' field 3. Get the next 50 results ```json { "nextUrl": "https://api.bugsnag.com/projects/515fb9337c1074f6fd000003/errors?base=2025-08-29T13%3A11%3A37Z&direction=desc&filters%5Berror.status%5D%5B%5D%5Btype%5D=eq&filters%5Berror.status%5D%5B%5D%5Bvalue%5D=open&offset=10&per_page=10&sort=users", "perPage": 50 } ``` Expected Output: JSON object with a list of errors, with a URL to the next page if more results are available and a total count of all errors matched **Hints:** 1. Use List Project Event Filters tool first to discover valid filter field names for your project 2. Combine multiple filters to narrow results - filters are applied with AND logic 3. For time filters: use relative format (7d, 24h) for recent periods or ISO 8601 UTC format (2018-05-20T00:00:00Z) for specific dates 4. Common time filters: event.since (from this time), event.before (until this time) 5. The 'event.since' filter and 'error.status' filters are always applied and if not specified are set to '30d' and 'open' respectively 6. There may not be any errors matching the filters - this is not a problem with the tool, in fact it might be a good thing that the user's application had no errors 7. This tool returns paged results. The 'page_error_count' field indicates the number of results returned in the current page, and the 'total_error_count' field indicates the total number of results across all pages. 8. If the output contains a 'next_url' value, there are more results available - call this tool again supplying the next URL as a parameter to retrieve the next page. 9. Do not modify the next URL as this can cause incorrect results. The only other parameter that can be used with 'next' is 'per_page' to control the page size.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the SmartBear MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on bugsnag_list_project_errors? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for bugsnag_list_project_errors. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the SmartBear MCP MCP server.

What risk level is bugsnag_list_project_errors? +

bugsnag_list_project_errors is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit bugsnag_list_project_errors? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the bugsnag_list_project_errors rule in your Intercept 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.

How do I block bugsnag_list_project_errors completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for bugsnag_list_project_errors. 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.

What MCP server provides bugsnag_list_project_errors? +

bugsnag_list_project_errors is provided by the SmartBear MCP MCP server (@smartbear/mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
