Get the current user
AI agents call pex_get_business_my_profile to retrieve information from PEX 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 profile data about the authenticated user. It performs a query operation with no state-changing effects, matching the Read category definition. Severity is low because exposure of a single user's own profile information has limited blast radius, though confidence is high given the clear read-only nature of the operation.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'pex_get_business_my_profile' with description 'Get the current user' indicates retrieval of user profile information with no modification or side effects.
