## Why moodle_get_site_info is rated Low

This tool only retrieves and queries static server and account information. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. The information returned (school name, version, user name, enabled APIs) is non-sensitive metadata typically available to any authenticated user. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent cannot cause harm by reading this information.
