Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why competitor_moves is rated Critical

The server explicitly states '271 agent-payable tools' and 'x402 per-call', meaning every call to this tool commits a financial obligation (micropayment). The tool itself is a competitive intelligence read, but the payment mechanism makes Financial the most severe applicable category. Severity is high because an AI agent could inadvertently trigger many paid calls in an automated loop.

From the tool's definition Gapup agent-payable ... x402 per-call — each invocation triggers a financial transaction via the x402 per-call payment protocol
