List all Clink groups you belong to. Returns group slugs, names, descriptions, and your role in each.
AI agents call list_groups to retrieve information from Clink 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 information about groups without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward data retrieval function with no blast radius if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'List all Clink groups you belong to' and 'Returns group slugs, names, descriptions, and your role in each' — purely retrieval of existing data with no modifications or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all Clink groups you belong to. Returns group slugs, names, descriptions, and your role in each. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Clink MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Clink MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_groups: 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 Clink MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_groups 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_groups 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_groups. 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_groups is provided by the Clink MCP Server MCP server (voxos-ai-inc/clink-mcp-server-python). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
