Top-N bad actor assets ranked by corrective WO count, labor hours, and cost.
AI agents call get_bad_actor_assets to retrieve information from Maximo Enterprise MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves asset performance metrics from the Maximo system. It performs analysis and ranking of existing data (work orders, labor hours, costs) but does not create, modify, delete, or trigger external actions. The worst-case misuse scenario would be information disclosure or competitive intelligence gathering, which constitutes a read-level risk appropriate to a high-value enterprise system.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'ranked by corrective WO count, labor hours, and cost' — it retrieves and ranks existing asset data without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. The verb 'get' and 'Top-N' indicate a query/retrieval operation.
