What list_pairings does on Google Fonts

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

Why list_pairings needs a policy

Even though list_pairings 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.
