AI agents call pfsense_list_services_haproxy_frontend_addresses to retrieve information from Pfsense without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'list' prefix indicates this tool retrieves HAProxy frontend address configuration without modifying state.
