List active patches (id + address).
AI agents call list_patches to retrieve information from GTAV-CLAUDE-MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries the state of active patches without modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It has minimal blast radius—an AI agent misusing it would merely retrieve information about patches already applied to the game, with no capability to alter game state, finances, or invoke irreversible changes. The tool is informational only.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_patches' and description 'List active patches (id + address)' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'list' is characteristic of Read operations that retrieve and display existing data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List active patches (id + address). It is categorised as a Read tool in the GTAV-CLAUDE-MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the GTAV-CLAUDE- MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_patches: 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 GTAV-CLAUDE-MCP. Nothing to install.
list_patches 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_patches 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_patches. 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_patches is provided by the GTAV-CLAUDE- MCP server (tabbedscamper/gtav-claude-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
