What get_upnp_settings does on Ikuai
AI agents call get_upnp_settings to retrieve information from Ikuai without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why get_upnp_settings is rated Low
This tool retrieves UPnP settings from the router. It performs a read-only query operation with no side effects, no code execution, and no data modification. While UPnP configuration details could inform network topology reconnaissance, the tool itself is passive retrieval. Severity is low because reading settings alone does not directly compromise the system.
