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

Why list_calls needs a policy

This tool retrieves or queries call data without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward data retrieval action consistent with the Read category. The low severity reflects minimal risk—unauthorized access to call metadata is a data leakage concern but does not allow direct modification or execution of operations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_calls' and description 'Lists all calls' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no side effects.
