## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "state-list",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why state-list is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only query of Terraform state to enumerate resources. It retrieves and displays information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any changes. The blast radius is minimal as misuse would only expose existing infrastructure metadata, not alter or destroy it.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Lists all resources tracked in the Terraform state. Returns resource addresses.' The verb 'Lists' and the passive nature of 'Returns' indicate data retrieval with no modification capability."

## Use case

AI agents call state-list to retrieve information from Git 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)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Git:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "state-list": {}
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
