This tool retrieves or queries market information (odds, pool size) from a prediction market on X Layer. There are no side effects, no data modification, no code execution, no deletions, and no financial transactions. It is a straightforward read operation that fits the 'Read' category. Low severity reflects minimal risk if misused by an AI agent—it can only expose publicly available market data.
