Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
This tool simply queries and returns data about treaties without any side effects, state changes, or external actions. It is a basic read/list operation consistent with the UK Parliament Bills API's public data retrieval functionality. The blast radius of misuse is minimal — an agent could at worst retrieve all treaty records, which are public parliamentary data.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_treaties' and description states 'Returns a list of treaties' — a straightforward retrieval operation with no modification or execution.
