## Why subreddit_feed is rated Low

This tool retrieves data from Reddit without side effects. It performs a read-only operation consistent with browsing/fetching. Although the server enables commenting and voting (write/execute actions), this specific tool only fetches subreddit content. No data is modified, deleted, or executed. Severity is low because fetching public subreddit posts poses minimal risk even if misused by an agent.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name and description indicate retrieval: 'Get posts from a specific subreddit' — a query operation with no modification, deletion, or execution of code/commands."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
