# mysql_show_tables_information Show comprehensive information about all tables in current database. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `mysql_show_tables_information`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-show-tables-information ## Facts - Tool: `mysql_show_tables_information` - Server: Mysql (`mukul975/mysql-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server.md - Homepage: https://github.com/mukul975/mysql-mcp-server - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "mysql_show_tables_information", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why mysql_show_tables_information is rated Low This tool retrieves and displays existing database schema information without modifying any data or executing code. It is a standard read operation for querying table metadata, consistent with the server's stated purpose of providing 'read-only queries.' The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker could only gain visibility into database structure, not alter systems or access sensitive data beyond what they… From the tool's own definition: "Tool name and description indicate retrieval of table metadata information. Verbs 'show' and 'comprehensive information about' confirm read-only query operation. No mention of modification, deletion, or execution capabilities." ## Use case AI agents call mysql_show_tables_information to retrieve information from Mysql without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Mysql: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "mysql_show_tables_information": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Mysql (232) - `drop_event` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/drop-event.md - `drop_partition` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/drop-partition.md - `drop_role` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/drop-role.md - `drop_stored_function` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/drop-stored-function.md - `drop_stored_procedure` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/drop-stored-procedure.md - `mysql_alter_table_drop_column` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-alter-table-drop-column.md - `mysql_delete_data` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-delete-data.md - `mysql_drop_database` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-drop-database.md - `mysql_drop_foreign_key` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-drop-foreign-key.md - `mysql_drop_index` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-drop-index.md - `mysql_drop_primary_key` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-drop-primary-key.md - `mysql_drop_table` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-drop-table.md - `mysql_drop_user` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-drop-user.md - `mysql_drop_view` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-drop-view.md - `mysql_kill_process` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-kill-process.md - `mysql_reset_query_cache` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-reset-query-cache.md - `mysql_revoke_privileges` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-revoke-privileges.md - `mysql_truncate_table` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-truncate-table.md - `create_event` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/create-event.md - `create_stored_procedure` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/create-stored-procedure.md - `mysql_analyze_table` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-analyze-table.md - `mysql_auto_index_rebuild_scheduler` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-auto-index-rebuild-scheduler.md - `mysql_flush_logs` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-flush-logs.md - `mysql_flush_privileges` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-flush-privileges.md - `mysql_flush_tables` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-flush-tables.md - `mysql_lock_tables` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-lock-tables.md - `mysql_optimize_table` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-optimize-table.md - `mysql_repair_table` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-repair-table.md - `mysql_set_variable` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-set-variable.md - `mysql_unlock_tables` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server/mysql-unlock-tables.md - …and 202 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/mukul975-mysql-mcp-server.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
