List available inventory reports and the periods they cover.
AI agents call list_inventory_reports to retrieve information from Caseware Kb without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Listing available inventory reports is a non-destructive query operation that retrieves metadata about existing documents. It has no side effects, does not modify data, and poses minimal risk if misused by an AI agent (at worst, it returns information the agent could already access). This clearly falls under the Read category with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool is described as 'List available inventory reports and the periods they cover' — a retrieval operation with no modification or deletion capability. This is a straightforward enumeration of existing resources.
