List all loaded plugins and their capabilities.
AI agents call list_plugins to retrieve information from EU AI Act Compliance MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns information about loaded plugins without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward read operation with minimal security impact, even if an AI agent calls it. The information returned could inform an attacker about system architecture, but the tool itself performs no destructive or risky actions.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_plugins' and description states it 'List all loaded plugins and their capabilities' — a retrieval operation with no modification or execution of code.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_plugins gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and EU AI Act Compliance MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_plugins:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_plugins": {}
}
}list_plugins is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List all loaded plugins and their capabilities. It is categorised as a Read tool in the EU AI Act Compliance MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the EU AI Act Compliance MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_plugins: 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 EU AI Act Compliance MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_plugins 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_plugins 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_plugins. 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_plugins is provided by the EU AI Act Compliance MCP Server MCP server (sonnylabs/eu_ai_act_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
