AI agents call get_org_chart to retrieve information from PeopleSoft 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 organizational structure and reporting relationships from PeopleSoft, which is a query operation with no side effects.
