What list_calls does on CodeBadger

AI agents call list_calls to retrieve information from CodeBadger without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why list_calls needs a policy

This tool lists calls within analyzed code—a read operation that queries the Code Property Graph to retrieve call information. No side effects, code modifications, or external operations are indicated. The empty description lowers confidence slightly, but the tool name and server context (static analysis for code browsing) strongly suggest a read-only operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_calls' indicates data retrieval. Server context shows static code analysis tools that browse, explore, and query code properties (call graphs, taint analysis, dataflow).
