Get a deal by ID
AI agents call getDeal to retrieve information from Follow Up Boss 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 a single deal record by its identifier. It is a query operation that has no side effects, does not modify data, and does not trigger external actions or financial transactions. It falls clearly under the Read category with low severity since unauthorized access to deal information in a CRM could expose business-sensitive data, but the tool itself performs only retrieval operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'getDeal' and description 'Get a deal by ID' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification of data.
