Get the list of all collections from PocketBase. Returns collection names, types, and basic metadata including created/updated timestamps.
AI agents call list_collections to retrieve information from Ssakone Pocketbase without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves metadata about collections with no side effects. It neither modifies, executes operations, deletes data, nor involves financial transactions. The information returned (collection names, types, timestamps) is structural metadata. Low severity because unauthorized collection enumeration has limited blast radius compared to data access or modification tools.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Get the list of all collections from PocketBase' and 'Returns collection names, types, and basic metadata'. The verb 'Get' and 'list' indicate retrieval without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get the list of all collections from PocketBase. Returns collection names, types, and basic metadata including created/updated timestamps. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Ssakone Pocketbase MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Ssakone Pocketbase MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_collections: 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 Ssakone Pocketbase. Nothing to install.
list_collections 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_collections 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_collections. 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_collections is provided by the Ssakone Pocketbase MCP server (@iflow-mcp/ssakone-pocketbase-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
