AI agents call salesforce_list_reports to retrieve information from Salesforce MCP Server 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 Salesforce reports without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It is purely informational retrieval, consistent with other discovery tools on this server (salesforce_list_dashboards, salesforce_list_flows, salesforce_list_objects).
