## Why tiktok.search_videos is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries publicly available TikTok video data with no side effects on the platform or data. It is a straightforward search/fetch operation that does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. The low severity reflects minimal risk if misused—an agent could perform excessive searches but cannot harm data or systems.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Search TikTok videos by keyword' and mentions pagination via cursor, with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities described."

## Use case
