List users from a PocketBase auth collection. Requires admin authentication. Returns users with pagination metadata.
AI agents call list_users 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 retrieves/queries user data without side effects. It is Read category. Severity is medium (not low) because it returns user identity/auth information, which is sensitive—an AI agent could enumerate users to gather intelligence for social engineering or targeted attacks. The admin authentication requirement provides some protection but does not eliminate the risk if the agent has valid credentials.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_users' and description 'List users from a PocketBase auth collection... Returns users with pagination metadata' indicate data retrieval with no modification.

List users from a PocketBase auth collection. Requires admin authentication. Returns users with pagination metadata. 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_users: 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_users 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_users 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_users. 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_users 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.
