WHAT IT DOES

What validate_pran does on Mcp India Stack

AI agents call validate_pran to retrieve information from Mcp India Stack without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why validate_pran is rated Low

This tool performs validation of a retirement account number, which is a read-only operation that checks the validity of an identifier. However, severity is elevated to medium (rather than low) because PRAN validation could facilitate identity verification attacks, fraud, or account enumeration if abused by an AI agent, and retirement account data is personally sensitive financial information.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'validate_pran' and description states it 'Validate[s] PRAN (Permanent Retirement Account Number) for NPS' - this is a validation/lookup operation that retrieves or queries data without modifying state.
