## Why get_onchain_pulse is rated Low

This tool queries and retrieves blockchain monitoring data without modifying state, executing code, or moving funds. It is purely informational for financial decision-support. While the server context (financial intelligence) is sensitive, this specific tool poses minimal risk—misuse would inform poor trading decisions rather than execute harmful actions directly. Classified as Read with low severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_onchain_pulse' and description stating it retrieves Bitcoin on-chain metrics: 'mempool congestion, fees, miner distribution, network security, mining economics, and activity levels.' All are read-only data queries with no state changes."
