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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "list_storage_buckets",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why list_storage_buckets is rated Low

List operations are read-only queries that retrieve information about existing resources. Listing storage buckets returns metadata about available buckets but does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. This presents minimal risk—at worst, an AI agent learns about bucket names and configuration. No data is modified, no code is executed, and no deletion occurs.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'list_storage_buckets' indicates a listing/querying operation. The description is empty, but the name and context (Supabase storage management) suggest retrieval of bucket metadata without modification or deletion."

## Use case

AI agents call list_storage_buckets to retrieve information from Supabase MCP Server - Self-Hosted Edition 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 Supabase MCP Server - Self-Hosted Edition:

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