## Why TRELLO_GET_BOARDS_CARDS_BY_ID_BOARD_BY_ID_CARD is rated Low

This tool performs read-only retrieval of Trello card data. It fetches information about a specific card and optionally associated metadata (attachments, actions, members, checklists) without creating, modifying, or deleting anything. The blast radius is minimal: disclosure of existing card details poses no operational risk to the Trello workspace itself, though sensitivity depends on card content.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Retrieves details' for a card with 'options to customize returned fields' — purely a query operation with no modifications, deletions, or external effects."

Risk signals: High parameter count (18 properties)
