Why letterboxd_film is rated Low
This tool retrieves and queries publicly available film metadata (synopsis, director, cast, genres, etc.) from Letterboxd without authentication or side effects. It performs a read-only retrieval operation analogous to a search or fetch, with no capability to create, modify, delete, or execute external operations. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—misuse would only return unwanted film information.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states it 'Get[s]' data and 'Returns' film information; operates on 'public Letterboxd data' with 'Credential-free' access; parses existing structured data from a film page with no modification capability mentioned.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs letterboxd_film safely

letterboxd_film is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
