AI agents call nodus_pricing to retrieve information from Nodusai without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and displays static pricing information and setup guidance with no side effects, data modification, code execution, or financial transactions. It is a simple informational lookup, consistent with the Read category (retrieves or queries data; no side effects). The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—even if invoked incorrectly by an AI agent, it only returns public pricing information.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'nodus_pricing' and description 'View NodusAI pricing and how to get started' indicates a read-only information retrieval operation that displays pricing data and onboarding information.
