Get a single deep link by ID or short code. Use this to inspect a specific link\
AI agents call get_link to retrieve information from LinkForty 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 information about an existing link without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. It is a simple query operation that fits the Read category, with low severity since link inspection poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get a single deep link by ID or short code' and 'Use this to inspect a specific link' — retrieval and inspection operations with no data modification or side effects.
