What list_configs does on Portkey Admin

AI agents call list_configs to retrieve information from Portkey Admin without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
page_size number Number of results per page (max 100)
current_page number Page number for pagination

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

Why list_configs needs a policy

Even though list_configs only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
