## Why clickup_get_folder_custom_fields is rated Low

The 'get' verb combined with the resource being queried (custom fields metadata) clearly indicates a read-only data retrieval operation with no modification or side effects. The empty description reduces confidence slightly, but the naming convention strongly supports this classification. No blast radius for misuse beyond potential information exposure.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'clickup_get_folder_custom_fields' indicates a retrieval operation (get) on folder custom fields; description is empty, limiting certainty."
