List all Jenkins views with their jobs
AI agents call jenkins_list_views to retrieve information from Mcp Jenkins 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 Jenkins configuration metadata (views and their associated jobs). It performs a non-destructive read operation that does not modify, execute, or delete any data. The blast radius is minimal as misuse only exposes information already accessible to authenticated users. Severity is low because listing views is informational only.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'jenkins_list_views' and description 'List all Jenkins views with their jobs' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.
