List all sites available to the API key
AI agents call unifi_list_sites to retrieve information from UniFi Network MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns a list of available sites. It is read-only, has no destructive potential, does not execute commands, and does not create or modify any data. The blast radius if misused by an AI agent is minimal—it only exposes the names/identifiers of sites the API key can access, which is informational only.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'list' and description states 'List all sites available to the API key' — a pure data retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
