list_teams

What list_teams does on Aos

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

Why list_teams is rated Low

The 'list_' prefix is a standard pattern for read operations that query and return data without modification. Given the lack of description and a pattern of other Create/Complete tools on the server, this tool follows the Read category paradigm: it retrieves or lists existing teams. No write, execute, destructive, or financial operations are evident from the name or context.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_teams' indicates a query/list operation that retrieves team data with no side effects. Sibling tools include create_* and complete_* verbs that modify state, but list_teams performs only retrieval.

The rule that runs list_teams safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Aos, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For list_teams, this is the rule to start with:

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_teams": {}
  }
}
