What account_info does on Open Stocks MCP
AI agents call account_info to retrieve information from Open Stocks MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why account_info is rated Low
This tool retrieves account information without modifying data or executing trades. However, it accesses sensitive financial account details (balance, holdings, account identifiers) which could be misused to inform unauthorized trading decisions or inform social engineering attacks. While the action itself is read-only, the sensitivity of the data warrants medium severity rather than low.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'account_info' and description states 'Gets basic Robinhood account information.' The verb 'Gets' indicates a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
