Why get_trades is rated Low
This tool queries and displays pending trade offers without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward data retrieval operation with no side effects, fitting squarely in the Read category. The severity is low because viewing trade data poses minimal risk—the worst case is information disclosure of in-game trading state, which is not sensitive in a multiplayer game context.
From the tool's definition Tool name and description both indicate a read-only operation: 'View pending trade offers' retrieves existing data without modification or side effects.
