According to these docs. The sever should respond to "list".

# Server supports reflection
grpcurl localhost:8787 list

That's not gRPC documentation. That's a third-party tool.

Looks like this is related to the concept of "reflection" in gRPC and, according to the gRPC docs, first-party libraries don't enable reflection automatically. I'm down with adding support, but that's an important distinction to make, especially for gRPC APIs exposed outside a VPC.
