Get members of a Twitter List (paginated).
AI agents call get_list_members to retrieve information from Twikit without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves and queries publicly available list membership information from Twitter/X. It does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or transfer funds. The paginated retrieval of list members is a straightforward data read operation. Even in the context of a Twitter management interface, this tool only accesses existing information without altering any state.
From the tool's definition Tool name and description indicate it 'Get[s] members of a Twitter List (paginated)'. This is a read-only retrieval operation with no side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_list_members gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Twikit, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_list_members:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_list_members": {}
}
}get_list_members is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get members of a Twitter List (paginated). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Twikit MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Twikit MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_list_members: 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 Twikit. Nothing to install.
get_list_members 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 get_list_members 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 get_list_members. 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.
get_list_members is provided by the Twikit MCP server (tangivis/twitter-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Twikit, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
