List surveys with optional filtering and pagination
AI agents call list_surveys to retrieve information from Qualtrics MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves and queries survey data using filters and pagination, characteristic of a Read operation. It has no capability to modify, delete, or execute actions. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius: an agent listing surveys poses no risk of data loss, modification, or external side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_surveys' and description states 'List surveys with optional filtering and pagination' — a retrieval operation with no stated side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_surveys gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Qualtrics MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_surveys:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_surveys": {}
}
}list_surveys is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List surveys with optional filtering and pagination. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Qualtrics MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Qualtrics MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_surveys: 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 Qualtrics MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_surveys 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_surveys 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_surveys. 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_surveys is provided by the Qualtrics MCP Server MCP server (yrvelez/qualtrics-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Qualtrics MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
