## Why linear_list_teams is rated Low

This tool retrieves organizational information (team metadata) from Linear without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It has no side effects and presents minimal risk—exposing team names and IDs is a low-severity information disclosure that an AI agent might perform accidentally without significant harm.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'List all teams in your Linear workspace. Returns team ID, name, key, and description.' The verb 'list' and the function of retrieving and returning team metadata without modification indicates a read-only operation."

## Use case

AI agents call linear_list_teams to retrieve information from Linear 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 Linear:

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