## Why searchEquityOfferings is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries financial market data (equity offering information) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any irreversible actions. It is a passive search and data access function typical of financial data APIs, posing minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'search for equity offerings' and 'access detailed information about recent share issuances' — purely informational retrieval with no modification, deletion, or execution of external operations."

## Use case

AI agents call searchEquityOfferings to retrieve information from Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) Server  without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
