## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why ssh_list_profiles is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries existing SSH profile configuration data. It does not execute commands, modify configurations, delete profiles, or trigger external operations. The action is purely informational inventory of SSH settings.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'ssh_list_profiles' with description 'List all configured SSH profiles' — the verb 'list' indicates data retrieval without modification or execution. Returns metadata about SSH configurations (host, port, username, auth method) with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call ssh_list_profiles to retrieve information from Terminal Guardian without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Terminal Guardian:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "ssh_list_profiles": {}
  }
}
```
