This tool retrieves a list of available currencies from a public financial data API. It performs a straightforward query with no ability to modify, delete, or execute operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_all_currencies' and description 'Get all available currencies on Derive' indicate a data retrieval operation with no side effects."

## Use case

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