list_document_attachments
AI agents call list_document_attachments to retrieve information from Outline MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves or queries attachment information without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a read-only operation consistent with the 'Read' category for tools that retrieve data with no side effects. The empty description prevents full certainty, but the name strongly suggests a simple listing/retrieval function.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_document_attachments' indicates retrieval of attachment metadata or listing attachments associated with documents. No modification, deletion, or execution capability is implied. Description is empty, which slightly reduces confidence.
