列出可用的 arthas agent（target 名称、地址、tags，不含凭证）。
AI agents call list_agents to retrieve information from Arthas Mcp Proxy without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves metadata about available diagnostic agents without modifying state, executing code, or affecting external systems. It is informational and safe for an AI agent to invoke. The explicit note that credentials are omitted further reduces risk.
From the tool's definition Tool lists available Arthas agents with names, addresses, and tags—pure data retrieval with 'no side effects' (explicitly notes credentials are excluded).

Register the Arthas Mcp Proxy MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_agents: 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 Arthas Mcp Proxy. Nothing to install.
list_agents 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_agents 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.
