List all 7 available syscall iterators with descriptions. Each iterator implements a different strategy for resolving syscall numbers at runtime from the in-memory ntdll.dll image. Returns: Formatted list of iterators with their descriptions.
AI agents call list_iterators to retrieve information from Sysplant without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a retrieval operation only. It queries and returns information about syscall iterator implementations without creating, modifying, deleting, executing, or moving any resources. The tool has no side effects and poses minimal security risk as an unauthorized disclosure vector. It is informational in nature, serving to enumerate available options to the user.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_iterators' and description states it 'List all 7 available syscall iterators with descriptions.' The verb 'list' combined with 'returns formatted list' indicates a read-only query operation that retrieves and displays information about…
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_iterators gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Sysplant, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_iterators:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_iterators": {}
}
}list_iterators is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List all 7 available syscall iterators with descriptions. Each iterator implements a different strategy for resolving syscall numbers at runtime from the in-memory ntdll.dll image. Returns: Formatted list of iterators with their descriptions. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Sysplant MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Sysplant MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_iterators: 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 Sysplant. Nothing to install.
list_iterators 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_iterators 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_iterators. 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_iterators is provided by the Sysplant MCP server (x42en/sysplant). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
