What list_destinations does on IdeaLift MCP Server

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

Why list_destinations needs a policy

list_destinations retrieves and displays configuration data (connected destinations like GitHub repos, Jira projects, Linear teams) without modifying any state. This is a read-only query operation with no side effects. Even though the destinations represent commit targets for external systems, the tool itself performs only a retrieval/listing function, making it a Read category risk.

From the tool's definition Tool description uses 'List connected' and 'show' which are retrieval operations. The purpose is to display available destinations to the user, with no modification, creation, or deletion of data occurring.
