get_harvest_data_by_resource
AI agents call get_harvest_data_by_resource to retrieve information from SORACOM Data Reader MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'get_' prefix universally indicates a retrieval operation with no side effects. The server's purpose is data access and querying IoT telemetry, not modification or deletion. Misuse risk is low since reading sensor data or resource statistics poses minimal harm compared to write, execute, or destructive operations.
