WHAT IT DOES

What salesforce_query does on WWIDE MCP Server

AI agents invoke salesforce_query to trigger actions in WWIDE MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why salesforce_query needs a policy

The name implies running queries against Salesforce, which could range from simple reads to executing arbitrary SOQL/SOSL that may include destructive operations. With an empty description, the exact capability is unknown, but query execution in Salesforce typically allows arbitrary data retrieval at minimum.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'salesforce_query' suggests query execution; description is empty and uninformative.
