What getRegions does on FPL MCP Server

AI agents call getRegions to retrieve information from FPL MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why getRegions needs a policy

This tool retrieves a static list of regions from the FPL API, which is a read-only query operation. There are no side effects, no data is created, modified, or deleted, and no code is executed. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve a list of regions, which is non-sensitive public data. This clearly falls under the Read category with low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'getRegions' and description 'Fetch FPL region list' indicate a retrieval operation with no data modification, deletion, or execution of external operations.
