## Why check_server_health is rated Low

This tool retrieves the current health status of a server—a non-destructive read operation. It has no side effects, does not execute code or commands, does not modify data, and does not involve financial transactions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal; an agent querying server health cannot cause harm beyond information disclosure.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'check_server_health' and description 'Check if a specific server is currently experiencing issues' indicate a query/retrieval operation that reads monitoring status without modifying state or triggering external actions."

## Use case

AI agents call check_server_health to retrieve information from Unofficial FortiMonitor MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
