What sqlserver_list_indexes does on Multi-Database MCP Server

AI agents call sqlserver_list_indexes to retrieve information from Multi-Database MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why sqlserver_list_indexes needs a policy

This tool performs a metadata query to enumerate indexes on a specified table. It retrieves information but does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only access index metadata, which does not expose sensitive data directly or enable destructive actions.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'sqlserver_list_indexes' and description 'List all indexes for a table' indicate a read-only query operation that retrieves metadata about database indexes without modifying data or executing arbitrary code.
