## Why databricks_list_secrets is rated Low

Listing secrets retrieves sensitive credential or authentication material. While this is a Read operation (no data is modified), the blast radius is elevated to medium severity because exposure of secrets could enable unauthorized access to protected resources. The empty description reduces confidence slightly, but the name is unambiguous about its function.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'databricks_list_secrets' indicates retrieval of secrets; 'list' is a read operation that queries data without modification."

## Use case

AI agents call databricks_list_secrets to retrieve information from Databricks MCP Server 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)
