What list_classes does on Easycslearning

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

Why list_classes needs a policy

This tool queries and retrieves educational class metadata from Firebase. It has no ability to modify, delete, or execute operations—it only fetches and presents information. The join code disclosure is a minor information exposure concern but does not elevate beyond Read category. Low severity reflects the limited blast radius of exposing class roster structure and metadata in an educational context.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_classes' and description 'List classes' indicate data retrieval. Server description explicitly states 'read-only access'. The tool returns metadata (class name, student count, join code) without modification or side effects.
