Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
This tool retrieves cryptocurrency price/quote information from an external API. It performs a read-only query operation with no ability to modify data, execute commands, delete information, or move funds. The worst-case misuse would be information disclosure or resource exhaustion, both low-severity risks. Confidence is high because the description unambiguously describes a data retrieval action.
