What list_messages does on SOLAPI MCP Server

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

Why list_messages needs a policy

This tool retrieves historical message data with no side effects. It supports querying by date range, message type, and pagination—all read-only operations. There is no capability to modify, delete, or trigger actions. The severity is low because message history is typically non-sensitive business data, and reading it poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'List recent SOLAPI message send history' with filtering and pagination capabilities. The verb 'list' and the lack of any modification, deletion, or execution language indicate a retrieval operation.
