list_component_versions
List all versions for a CircleCI component
Part of the CircleCI MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL
AI agents call list_component_versions to retrieve information from CircleCI without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions — but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.
WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON LIST_COMPONENT_VERSIONS
Even though list_component_versions only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.
RECOMMENDED POLICY
Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What does the list_component_versions tool do?
List all versions for a CircleCI component. It is categorised as a Read tool in the CircleCI MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
How do I enforce a policy on list_component_versions?
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for list_component_versions. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the CircleCI MCP server.
What risk level is list_component_versions?
list_component_versions is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Can I rate-limit list_component_versions?
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the list_component_versions rule in your Intercept 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.
How do I block list_component_versions completely?
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for list_component_versions. 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.
What MCP server provides list_component_versions?
list_component_versions is provided by the CircleCI MCP server (CircleCI-Public/mcp-server-circleci). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
