Get overall API statistics and service health.
AI agents call get_stats to retrieve information from SearchCAIE MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves statistical information about the API and service status. It performs no data modification, execution of external operations, or destructive actions. It is a straightforward read operation that returns informational metrics, making it a low-severity Read category tool.
