AI agents call list_dynamic_firewall_addresses to retrieve information from Fortimanager without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The naming convention 'list_*' strongly suggests this tool retrieves or enumerates firewall addresses from FortiManager. There is no indication of modification, deletion, or execution of commands. This is a standard Read operation with low blast radius—even if misused by an agent, it only exposes configuration data without side effects.

"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_dynamic_firewall_addresses": {}
