Return hardware info for all agents or a list of them.
AI agents call get_agents_hardware to retrieve information from Wazuh 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 hardware information from Wazuh agents without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward query function that returns existing data, characteristic of Read category tools. The low severity reflects minimal risk from misuse—exposing hardware inventory data is informational and has no side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_agents_hardware' and description 'Return hardware info for all agents or a list of them' indicate a read-only retrieval operation. The verb 'Return' and 'get' prefix confirm data retrieval with no modification or execution capability.
