list_projects
AI agents call list_projects to retrieve information from Cloudera Machine Learning (CML) MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'list_projects' tool retrieves or enumerates projects in a Cloudera ML environment. This is a query operation with no side effects—it does not create, modify, delete, or execute anything. No data is altered, no code is run, and no external operations are triggered. The minimal information exposure from listing existing projects poses low risk even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_projects' indicates a retrieval operation that queries/lists existing projects without modification or execution.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
list_projects. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Cloudera Machine Learning (CML) MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Cloudera Machine Learning (CML) MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_projects: 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 Cloudera Machine Learning (CML) MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_projects 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_projects 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_projects. 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_projects is provided by the Cloudera Machine Learning (CML) MCP Server MCP server (yw449/cloudera-cml-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
