## Why gws_gmail_list is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only operation on Gmail data. It lists messages and applies filters to the query, but does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. The blast radius is low since it only exposes existing message metadata that the authenticated user can already access through Gmail itself.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool is described as 'List recent Gmail messages' with support for 'query filters', indicating it retrieves and filters existing data without modifying or deleting anything."

## Use case

AI agents call gws_gmail_list to retrieve information from Iconnect 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 Iconnect:

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