AI agents call get_word_mentions to retrieve information from Tgstat without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries analytics data about keyword mentions in Telegram channels. It retrieves historical statistics without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve unwanted analytics data, not affect any systems or data stores. Categorized as Read.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Track[s] how often a keyword is mentioned' and retrieves 'mentions + views per period' — pure data retrieval with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities.
