WHAT IT DOES

What get_snmp_resource_metric does on Unofficial FortiMonitor MCP Server

RISK

Why get_snmp_resource_metric is rated Low

This tool queries and retrieves monitoring metric data from SNMP resources. It performs data retrieval only, with no capability to modify, delete, or execute operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could exfiltrate operational metrics but cannot alter system state or trigger external actions. This is a straightforward Read category tool.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get time-series metric data' — a retrieval operation with no modification or execution. The verb 'Get' and the focus on reading metric data from SNMP resources indicates a read-only query with no side effects.
