Why list_proxies needs a policy

This tool queries and returns proxy configuration information but does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. It has no destructive or financial implications. The information retrieved could be sensitive (proxy addresses), but the tool itself performs only a passive retrieval operation, making it a Read classification with low severity due to limited blast radius if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_proxies' and description 'retrieve list of global proxies and independent proxies for all accounts' indicates data retrieval with no side effects. The verb 'list' and 'get' (from '获取' in Chinese) are characteristic of Read operations.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_proxies gives an agent:

How to control list_proxies

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Telegram MCP Complete, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_proxies:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_proxies": {}
  }
}

list_proxies is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Telegram MCP Complete — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
