## Why get_tickers is rated Low

This tool queries market data without side effects. It retrieves price and volume information for cryptocurrency pairs—a pure read operation. No data modification, trading execution, or financial transactions occur. The low severity reflects that misuse only exposes public market information already available through normal API channels.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool retrieves 'real-time ticker information including current prices, 24h volume, and price changes' with no modification or execution capabilities described."

## Use case

AI agents call get_tickers to retrieve information from Bybit MCP Server 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)
