WHAT IT DOES

What swagger_reload does on Multi-Database MCP Server

AI agents invoke swagger_reload to trigger actions in Multi-Database MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why swagger_reload needs a policy

This tool triggers an external operation — reloading/re-fetching the OpenAPI spec from its source. It doesn't simply read data; it actively initiates a reload process that could affect the server's running configuration or API definitions. This classifies as Execute since it triggers an external operation with side effects depending on the source state.
