AI agents call list_drafts to retrieve information from LinkedIn Intelligence MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This is a read-only operation that queries stored draft content. While it accesses user data, the data returned consists of the user's own draft posts (not published or sensitive information), and there are no destructive, financial, or execution risks. The primary concern is information disclosure, which is low-severity in the context of an authenticated user accessing their own drafts.
From the tool's definition The tool 'list_drafts' retrieves and displays content drafts without modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. The verb 'list' indicates a query-only operation with no side effects.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and LinkedIn Intelligence MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_drafts:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_drafts": {}
}
}list_drafts is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
