## Why marketo_get_program_by_id is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries program metadata from Marketo without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. It is purely informational and carries minimal risk if misused by an AI agent—at worst exposing existing program metadata that likely has limited sensitivity in isolation.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'get' and description states 'Retrieve a single program by its numeric ID. Returns full program metadata...' indicating a read-only data retrieval operation with no side effects."

## Use case

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