AI agents call getNotams to retrieve information from SimBrief Flight Planning MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves NOTAMs (Notices to Airmen) - read-only aviation data used for flight planning. It has no side effects, does not modify any data, execute commands, delete information, or commit financial transactions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal as an AI agent simply retrieving flight planning information cannot cause harm through read-only access to notices.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'getNotams' and description states it 'Get ALL NOTAMs' and 'Returns complete, unfiltered NOTAM details' - purely retrieving and querying existing aviation data with no modification, deletion, or execution of external operations.
