AI agents call snow_predictive_analysis to retrieve information from Serac without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool reads and analyzes historical data to generate predictions. It does not modify, execute, delete, or transact anything — it queries existing patterns and returns analytical insights. Severity is medium because the predictions could influence significant operational decisions, and misuse could lead to poor resource allocation or missed incidents.
