List MySQL databases and users for a cPanel account
AI agents call cpanel_mysql_list to retrieve information from ItchWHMMCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns information about existing MySQL databases and users. It performs a read-only operation with no side effects, reversible changes, code execution, data deletion, or financial impact. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only enumerate database metadata, which would not harm the system or data integrity.
