What uxi_list_groups does on Hpe Networking
AI agents call uxi_list_groups to retrieve information from Hpe Networking without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why uxi_list_groups is rated Low
This tool retrieves and queries existing UXI group data without side effects. It is a straightforward data retrieval operation that returns group metadata. Classification as Read is appropriate, with low severity due to minimal risk from querying group information.
From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'list' and description states it 'List UXI groups' with read-only attributes (id, name, path, parent group). No modification, deletion, or execution capability mentioned.

The rule that runs uxi_list_groups safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Hpe Networking, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For uxi_list_groups, this is the rule to start with:
uxi_list_groups is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Hpe Networking, apply this rule, and every uxi_list_groups call is checked against it from then on.
