## Why list_boards_in_workspace is rated Low

This tool queries and retrieves information about boards within a workspace. It performs a read-only operation with no side effects, no data modification, no irreversible actions, and no financial implications. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only enumerate boards it has access to, which is non-destructive information retrieval.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'list_boards_in_workspace' and description 'List all boards in a specific workspace' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or deletion of data."

## Use case

AI agents call list_boards_in_workspace to retrieve information from Trello 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 Trello:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_boards_in_workspace": {}
  }
}
```
