What crow_tax_get_documents does on Crow
AI agents call crow_tax_get_documents to retrieve information from Crow without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why crow_tax_get_documents is rated Low
This tool queries and retrieves tax documents that have already been uploaded and processed. It performs a read-only operation (listing and fetching data) with no side effects. While tax documents are sensitive PII, the tool itself does not modify, delete, or execute anything. The risk is informational leakage if misused by an agent, but the tool's own capability is purely read-based.
From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'get' and description explicitly states 'List all uploaded and confirmed tax documents' and 'Returns extracted data' — classic retrieval operations with no modification, deletion, or execution.
