List every Procore API category with its modules and endpoint counts.
AI agents call procore_discover_categories to retrieve information from Procore MCP Server 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 metadata about available API categories, modules, and endpoint counts from Procore. It performs no mutations, deletions, code execution, or financial operations. The blast radius if misused is minimal — an AI agent could only retrieve informational structure about the API itself, not access or modify actual project data, financial records, or execute operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name and description indicate it 'List[s] every Procore API category' — a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'discover' and 'list' are characteristic of Read operations.

List every Procore API category with its modules and endpoint counts. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Procore MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Procore MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for procore_discover_categories: 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 Procore MCP Server. Nothing to install.
procore_discover_categories 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 procore_discover_categories 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 procore_discover_categories. 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.
procore_discover_categories is provided by the Procore MCP Server MCP server (tylerilunga/procore-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
