## Facts

- Tool: `state-list`
- Server: Go (`Dave-London/Pare`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-dave-london-go.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/Dave-London/pare
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

## 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

The tool performs a read-only query of Terraform state to enumerate resources. It retrieves and displays information without side effects. While the state file may contain sensitive data (credentials, secrets), the misuse risk is limited to information disclosure rather than infrastructure modification or destruction.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'state-list' and description 'Lists all resources tracked in the Terraform state. Returns resource addresses.' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or deletion of state."

## Use case

AI agents call state-list to retrieve information from Go 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 Go:

```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`
