Get floors climbed data
AI agents call get_floors to retrieve information from Garmin MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves stored fitness data (floors climbed) from Garmin Connect without modifying, executing, or deleting anything. It has no financial impact and no ability to trigger external actions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only access or exfiltrate personal health data, which is a privacy concern but not operationally destructive.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_floors' and description 'Get floors climbed data' indicate a data retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'get' and the read-only nature of fetching historical fitness metrics confirm this is a query operation.
