## Why Zip_List_Contents_File is rated Low

This tool performs a query operation on a ZIP file to enumerate its contents. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. The operation has no side effects and returns informational data only. It falls squarely into the Read category with minimal security risk.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'Zip_List_Contents_File' and description 'List the contents of a ZIP file' indicate a read-only operation that retrieves and displays data without modification."

## Use case

AI agents call Zip_List_Contents_File to retrieve information from Files Com 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)

```json
{
  "version": "1",
