List households in the current group.
AI agents call list_group_households to retrieve information from Mealie 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 household information within a group without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. It is a simple read operation with minimal security impact. The only minor concern is potential information disclosure if household data is sensitive, but classification as 'Read' is appropriate since that is the primary risk category for data retrieval tools.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_group_households' and description 'List households in the current group' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no modification or deletion of data.
