AI agents call export_cucumber_features to retrieve information from Xray MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool reads/downloads Cucumber feature files from Xray Test Management. Exporting data is fundamentally a read operation — it retrieves existing content without creating, modifying, or deleting anything. Low severity as misuse would only expose test definitions.
From the tool's definition Export Cucumber feature files from Xray" — exporting/reading feature files is a retrieval operation with no side effects
