AI agents call project_list to retrieve information from Testops 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 a list of projects with pagination support. It performs no modifications, deletions, or execution of external operations. The action is purely informational retrieval, fitting the 'Read' category with low severity as misuse would only expose data visibility, not cause harm or system changes.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'project_list' and description 'List all projects with pagination' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all projects with pagination. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Testops MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Testops MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for project_list: 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 Testops. Nothing to install.
project_list 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 project_list 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 project_list. 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.
project_list is provided by the Testops MCP server (@syn7xx/testops-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
