## Why get_derivatives_context is rated Low

This tool reads derivatives market data (perpetual funding rates, options metrics, leverage positioning) to inform decision-making. It has no write, execute, or destructive capability. Severity is medium rather than low because derivatives data carries financial significance — misuse could lead to poor trading decisions with material consequences — but the tool itself performs no transactions or irreversible actions.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description uses purely informational verbs: 'derivatives intelligence', 'understanding market positioning' — it retrieves and contextualizes data (funding rates, options metrics, leverage positions) without modifying state, executing trades, or…"

## Use case

AI agents call get_derivatives_context to retrieve information from Fathom Fyi without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
