WHAT IT DOES

What list_collaborators does on Forgejo

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

RISK

Why list_collaborators is rated Low

This tool queries and returns information about repository collaborators. It performs a read-only operation that retrieves existing data without modifying, creating, deleting, or executing any operations. The function is informational in nature and carries minimal risk if misused by an AI agent, as it only exposes metadata about repository access already granted.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_collaborators' and description 'List collaborators of a repository' indicate a data retrieval operation with no side effects.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs list_collaborators safely

list_collaborators Allowed

list_collaborators is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
