Why dhis2_metadata is rated Low

Without a description, classification relies on the tool name and context. 'Metadata' operations typically retrieve configuration or structural information rather than create, modify, or destroy it. However, confidence is reduced due to the empty description; if this tool actually modifies DHIS2 system configuration, it could be categorized as Write.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'dhis2_metadata' suggests querying metadata from DHIS2 (District Health Information Software System), a common public health data platform. The naming convention 'dhis2_' prefix with 'metadata' indicates a retrieval operation rather than mutation.
