Get counters of linked assets from a given starting point.
AI agents call get_linked_assets_counters to retrieve information from InvGate Service Desk without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and returns counter information about linked assets. The verb 'get' and the nature of returning 'counters' (read-only metrics) confirm this is a non-destructive query operation with no side effects. It poses minimal risk if misused by an AI agent, as it only exposes aggregated count data without the ability to modify, delete, or execute actions on assets.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_linked_assets_counters' and description 'Get counters of linked assets from a given starting point' indicate a retrieval/query operation that returns count data without modification.
