Lister les boards (tableaux kanban) d
AI agents call list_boards to retrieve information from Mcp Gitlab without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and lists GitLab boards (kanban boards) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It is a straightforward data query operation with no destructive or side-effect capabilities. The minimal blast radius (information disclosure limited to board metadata) warrants low severity.

Register the Mcp Gitlab MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_boards: 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 Mcp Gitlab. Nothing to install.
list_boards 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_boards 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_boards. 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_boards is provided by the Mcp Gitlab MCP server (wanadev/gitlab-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
