Get Jenkins job info
AI agents call get_job_info to retrieve information from MCP Jenkins Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries Jenkins job information with no side effects. It falls squarely into the Read category. Severity is medium rather than low because Jenkins job configurations can contain sensitive information (credentials, API tokens, internal system details, deployment secrets) that could be exposed to unauthorized parties or used for reconnaissance.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_job_info' and description 'Get Jenkins job info' indicate retrieval of job metadata/configuration information without modification.
