List packages available to import into a space. Shows packages from other spaces that can be imported.
AI agents call birst_list_available_packages to retrieve information from Infor Birst 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 displays available packages without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is purely informational/exploratory in nature, consistent with Read category tools like list and get operations. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—an AI agent misusing this tool can only retrieve metadata about packages.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'list' and description states it 'shows packages' available for import—a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
