search_businesses
AI agents call search_businesses to retrieve information from Infobel Api without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool searches business data without modifying, deleting, or executing external operations. While the description is empty, the tool name combined with the server's stated purpose and sibling tools strongly indicate this is a read operation that queries a business database. No financial transactions, code execution, or destructive operations are implied.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'search_businesses' indicates a search operation. Sibling tools on the server (get_available_countries, get_cities, get_currencies, etc.) are all retrieval/read operations with no side effects.
