AI agents call konsulto_search_templates to retrieve information from Konsulto without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool searches and retrieves metadata from a template catalog. It performs a read-only query that returns limited data (id, title). There is no modification, execution, deletion, or financial action. The incomplete description does not suggest any side effects, and searching a catalog is a canonical Read operation.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'search' and description states 'Search the finding-template catalog. Returns a slim shape (id, title,...)' — this is a query/retrieval operation with no side effects.
