## Why list_recent_invoices is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries invoice data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It answers informational questions like 'show me my latest invoices' which are pure data retrieval with no side effects.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'list_recent_invoices' and description states it 'List[s] the most recent invoices' with optional filtering. The verb 'list' and function of retrieving/querying existing invoice data with no modification capability indicates a read-only operation."
