Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
This tool retrieves and aggregates market data and event streams from the NZX. It performs no write operations, does not execute external code or commands, and cannot modify or delete data. The 'signal' terminology refers to data points being returned, not executable actions. Even with access to sensitive data like insider trades, the tool itself is read-only with no capacity for misuse beyond information exposure.
