List connected Salesforce accounts. Takes no parameters — call with {}. Call this FIRST before any Salesforce CRM operations to verify authentication. This MCP instance operates on a single Salesforce account. If no account is connected, use salesforce_connect_account.
AI agents call salesforce_list_connected_accounts to retrieve information from Apple Shortcuts without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves or queries account connection status with no side effects. It is a read-only operation that checks existing authentication state rather than creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'list' and description states 'List connected Salesforce accounts'. The description explicitly indicates this tool 'Takes no parameters' and is used to 'verify authentication' without modifying state.

{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"salesforce_list_connected_accounts": {}
}
}salesforce_list_connected_accounts is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
