What gdb_list_breakpoints does on GDB MCP Server

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

Why gdb_list_breakpoints needs a policy

This is a read-only operation that enumerates existing debugger state. It has no side effects on the debugged program, the debugger configuration, or any system state. While it provides information about breakpoints (which could theoretically be used to understand program flow), listing breakpoints is purely informational—comparable to a 'get' or 'list' operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'gdb_list_breakpoints' and description 'lists all currently set breakpoints and their detailed information (including conditions)' indicate a query/inspection operation.
