WHAT IT DOES

What site_get_backup_list does on Aapanel

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

RISK

Why site_get_backup_list is rated Low

This tool retrieves backup metadata without side effects. It is a read-only operation that queries existing backup information. The low severity reflects that listing backups poses minimal risk unless the backup contents themselves are sensitive (which is a data sensitivity issue, not a tool capability issue). Even an AI agent misusing this tool by listing backups cannot cause damage through the tool itself.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'get' and description states 'List website backups' — pure data retrieval with no modification or execution.
