AI agents call lichess_get_my_games to retrieve information from Lichess MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries existing game data from a user's Lichess account. It does not modify, delete, execute external operations, or commit financial obligations. The ability to filter results does not change its fundamental nature as a read-only data retrieval operation. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only access or exfiltrate game history data that belongs to the authenticated user.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Fetch your recent chess games' with filtering options. The verb 'Fetch' and the scope of operations (returning game history, moves, results, opponent info) are purely informational retrieval with no side effects.
