AI agents call wordpress_list_pages to retrieve information from ItchWPMCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and lists existing WordPress pages without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward read-only query against the WordPress REST API, posing minimal security risk. The low severity reflects that listing pages typically exposes only metadata already accessible to authenticated users of the WordPress site.
