List all files in the cal.com project
AI agents call list_files to retrieve information from Local Code MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves directory/file listing information with no ability to modify, delete, or execute anything. It is a pure read operation with minimal blast radius - at worst, it reveals file structure, which is low-risk information disclosure.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'List all files in the cal.com project' and server description explicitly promises 'read-only access to local codebases' with no side effects mentioned.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all files in the cal.com project. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Local Code MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Local Code MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_files: 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 Local Code MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_files 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_files 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_files. 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_files is provided by the Local Code MCP Server MCP server (udittripathi/mcpserver). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
