# list_fortimanager_categories List high-level FortiManager operation categories (metadata-only). Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `list_fortimanager_categories`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/list-fortimanager-categories ## Facts - Tool: `list_fortimanager_categories` - Server: Fortimanager (`jmpijll/fortimanager-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/jmpijll/fortimanager-mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "list_fortimanager_categories", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why list_fortimanager_categories is rated Low This tool performs a read-only query to list operation categories. The explicit 'metadata-only' descriptor confirms no side effects, state changes, or operations are triggered. Classification as Read is appropriate with low severity due to minimal blast radius from misuse—an agent would only retrieve informational data about available operations. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'list_fortimanager_categories' and description 'List high-level FortiManager operation categories (metadata-only)' indicate a retrieval operation that returns metadata without modifying or executing anything." ## Use case AI agents call list_fortimanager_categories to retrieve information from Fortimanager 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 Fortimanager: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "list_fortimanager_categories": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Fortimanager (583) - `bulk_delete_security_profile_entries` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/bulk-delete-security-profile-entries.md - `clear_database_cache` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/clear-database-cache.md - `delete_adom_revision` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-adom-revision.md - `delete_central_dnat_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-central-dnat-policy.md - `delete_central_snat_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-central-snat-policy.md - `delete_certificate_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-certificate-template.md - `delete_cli_script` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-cli-script.md - `delete_cli_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-cli-template.md - `delete_cli_template_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-cli-template-group.md - `delete_custom_application` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-custom-application.md - `delete_device_blueprint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-device-blueprint.md - `delete_device_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-device-group.md - `delete_dns_filter_domain` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-dns-filter-domain.md - `delete_dynamic_interface` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-dynamic-interface.md - `delete_external_threat_feed` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-external-threat-feed.md - `delete_firewall_address` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-firewall-address.md - `delete_firewall_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-firewall-policy.md - `delete_firewall_zone` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-firewall-zone.md - `delete_fortiap_profile` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-fortiap-profile.md - `delete_fortiextender` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-fortiextender.md - `delete_internet_service_fqdn` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-internet-service-fqdn.md - `delete_internet_service_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-internet-service-group.md - `delete_ip_pool` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ip-pool.md - `delete_ips_sensor` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ips-sensor.md - `delete_ipsec_phase1_interface` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ipsec-phase1-interface.md - `delete_ipsec_phase2_interface` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ipsec-phase2-interface.md - `delete_ipsec_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ipsec-template.md - `delete_meta_field` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-meta-field.md - `delete_object_metadata` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-object-metadata.md - `delete_policy_block` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-policy-block.md - …and 553 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
