## Why monday-get-board-groups is rated Low

This tool retrieves (reads) group information from a Monday.com board with no side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only gain access to board structure information, which is not sensitive enough to warrant higher severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'monday-get-board-groups' and description 'Retrieve all groups from a board' indicate a query operation that fetches data without modification."

## Use case
