Get comments on a post. Returns cleaned data in TOON format.
AI agents call get_post_comments to retrieve information from Product Hunt 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 existing comment data from a post without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a pure read operation consistent with the Product Hunt API's data query capabilities. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could at most fetch excessive comment data, but cannot alter or harm the platform or user accounts.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_post_comments' and description 'Get comments on a post' indicate a retrieval operation. The verb 'Get' combined with 'Returns cleaned data' confirms this is a query-only action with no side effects.
