Retrieves all posts.
AI agents call get_posts to retrieve information from Google Maps MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool performs a retrieval operation ('Retrieves') without modifying, deleting, or executing external operations. It reads data and returns results, fitting the Read category. Severity is low because retrieval of posts poses minimal risk unless the data contains highly sensitive information, which is not indicated in the description.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_posts' and description 'Retrieves all posts' indicate a data retrieval operation with no side effects.
