What arvan_list_ssh_keys does on ArvanCloud MCP Server
AI agents call arvan_list_ssh_keys to retrieve information from ArvanCloud MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why arvan_list_ssh_keys is rated Low
This tool performs a read-only query to retrieve SSH key metadata registered in a region. It retrieves data without side effects, matching the Read category definition. Severity is low because listing SSH keys does not expose private key material (which would be critical); it only enumerates public key identifiers and metadata, which are non-sensitive in themselves.
From the tool's definition Tool name and description indicate listing/retrieval: 'List SSH keys' with no modification, deletion, or execution capability. The phrase 'for injecting into new servers' describes a potential downstream use, not the tool's own action.
