The blast radius if misused is minimal—an agent could over-query invoice data but cannot cause financial, destructive, or operational harm.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_invoice' and description 'Get full details of a specific invoice by its document number' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
