What list_domains does on Tether Name

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

Why list_domains needs a policy

The tool retrieves and lists existing domain data without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is purely informational, returning a read-only view of domains associated with the authenticated account. The blast radius of misuse is limited to information disclosure about domains, hence low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'List all registered domains for the authenticated account.' This is a query/retrieval operation with no side effects.
