List all cached projects and tags from the last authentication
AI agents call list-cached-data to retrieve information from Dida without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only queries and returns cached metadata (projects and tags) that was stored during prior authentication. It has no side effects, does not modify any state, and performs a simple read operation. The low severity reflects that exposing cached project/tag names poses minimal risk compared to tools that modify tasks or delete data on this server.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list-cached-data' and description states it 'List all cached projects and tags from the last authentication' — purely retrieves previously cached data with no modification, creation, or deletion.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list-cached-data gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Dida, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list-cached-data:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list-cached-data": {}
}
}list-cached-data is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List all cached projects and tags from the last authentication. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Dida MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Dida MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list-cached-data: 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 Dida. Nothing to install.
list-cached-data 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-cached-data 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-cached-data. 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-cached-data is provided by the Dida MCP server (zhongwencool/dida-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Dida, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
