## 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 retrieval operation on Terraform state data, listing existing resources without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. The output is informational (resource addresses), with no side effects. While Terraform state can contain sensitive information, the tool itself is a passive read operation, making it Read category with low severity.

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 read-only query operation that retrieves state information without modification."

## Use case

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

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