List lights
AI agents call unifi_list_lights to retrieve information from Garza Home MCP 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 a list of lights from UniFi sensors/devices. It performs data retrieval only, matching the Read category definition. Listing devices has minimal security impact—the worst outcome is information disclosure about which lights exist on the network. No execution, modification, deletion, or financial action is performed.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'unifi_list_lights' and description 'List lights' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
