List entities with optional type, status, attribute, tag, and text filters.
AI agents call list_entities to retrieve information from SQLite Project Memory MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves or queries data from the SQLite database with optional filtering parameters. It has no side effects—it does not create, modify, delete, or execute anything. The operation is purely read-only, making it the safest category. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius if an AI agent misuses this tool, as it can only expose existing data within filter constraints.
From the tool's definition The tool name 'list_entities' and description 'List entities with optional type, status, attribute, tag, and text filters' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no modification of data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List entities with optional type, status, attribute, tag, and text filters. It is categorised as a Read tool in the SQLite Project Memory MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the SQLite Project Memory MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_entities: 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 SQLite Project Memory MCP. Nothing to install.
list_entities 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_entities 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_entities. 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_entities is provided by the SQLite Project Memory MCP server (webrtcgame/sqlite-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
