What list_repositories does on Mcp Read Only Argocd

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

Why list_repositories needs a policy

This tool retrieves and lists repository configurations from Argo CD without modifying, executing, deleting, or moving any data. It is a pure query operation with read-only semantics and no side effects. The server's design explicitly restricts to read-only operations.

From the tool's definition Server explicitly advertises 'read-only access' and tool name 'list_repositories' combined with sibling tools (get_application, get_cluster, list_applications) that are all query/list operations with no modification capability.
