List all DNS zones managed by this WHM server
AI agents call whm_dns_list_zones 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 retrieves and enumerates DNS zone data without side effects. It is a read-only operation that queries server state. The severity is low because listing DNS zones reveals infrastructure information but does not alter data or expose secrets directly (though the zones themselves may contain sensitive domain information). Confidence is high due to clear evidence from both the name and description.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'list' and description states 'List all DNS zones' — a purely informational query with no modification or execution.
