## Why mcp_get_plugins_health is rated Low

This tool queries plugin status and available update information. It retrieves data about the state of installed plugins and checks for updates, but does not install, activate, deactivate, or modify any plugins. No side effects occur from calling this tool. The severity is low because the information revealed is already accessible to site administrators and does not enable harmful actions on its own.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'get' and description states 'Get plugin health status and available updates' - purely retrieves information without modifying data."

## Use case

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
