list_jira_boards
AI agents call list_jira_boards to retrieve information from DCI 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/enumerates existing Jira boards without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It is a typical Read category operation. Severity is low because listing boards poses minimal risk—it exposes metadata about project structure but does not directly affect data integrity or operations.
