AI agents call list_all_owned_users to retrieve information from BloodHound MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool reads/queries Active Directory data to identify users marked as 'owned' (compromised in the attacker model). It has no side effects—it does not modify, delete, or execute anything.

"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_all_owned_users": {}
}
