What get-route does on Strava MCP Server

AI agents call get-route to retrieve information from Strava MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why get-route needs a policy

This tool retrieves route details by ID—a read-only operation with no side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or trigger financial transactions. The 'fetch' verb confirms data retrieval semantics. Severity is low because misuse would only expose fitness route metadata that the authenticated user already owns or has access to on Strava.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get-route' and description 'Fetches detailed information about a specific route using its ID' indicate retrieval of existing data with no modification, deletion, or execution capability.
