CALL FIRST to discover available automations before writing custom code. Returns workflow names, descriptions, and required parameters.
AI agents call list_workflows to retrieve information from Code Mode Toon without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This is a read-only discovery tool that retrieves and lists metadata about available workflows. It does not execute, modify, delete, or create anything. The intended use is to help agents understand what automations exist before taking action elsewhere. The severity is low because exposure would only allow an agent to see what workflows are available, not to invoke them or cause any harm.
From the tool's definition Tool returns workflow names, descriptions, and required parameters—purely informational queries with no modification, execution, or side effects. The description explicitly states it is for 'discovery' purposes.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_workflows gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Code Mode Toon, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_workflows:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_workflows": {}
}
}list_workflows is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

CALL FIRST to discover available automations before writing custom code. Returns workflow names, descriptions, and required parameters. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Code Mode Toon MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Code Mode Toon MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_workflows: 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 Code Mode Toon. Nothing to install.
list_workflows 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_workflows 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_workflows. 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_workflows is provided by the Code Mode Toon MCP server (ziad-hsn/code-mode-toon). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Code Mode Toon, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
