## Why get_vps_reverse_dns is rated Low

This tool retrieves reverse DNS record information for a VPS. It performs a read-only query against DNS configuration data without modifying, creating, deleting, or executing any operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker could only gain information about DNS configurations, which is already semi-public. Classification as Read is appropriate.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_vps_reverse_dns' and description 'Get VPS reverse DNS records' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'get' and the read-only nature of querying DNS records confirm this is a query/read operation."
