Why adt_list_transports needs a policy

This tool purely retrieves and filters existing transport request data without side effects. It is a passive query operation that returns information already accessible to the authenticated user in SAP. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius: even if an AI agent misuses this tool, it can only read transport metadata within the user's existing permissions.

From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'list' and description states 'List transport requests' with filtering options (user, status). No modification, deletion, or execution is performed—only querying and returning transport request metadata visible to the user.

  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "adt_list_transports": {}
  }
