Get latest transactions
AI agents call getLatestTransactions to retrieve information from Somnia MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves transaction history from the Somnia blockchain via the ORMI API. It performs a query operation with no side effects—it does not create, modify, delete, or execute anything. The risk is low because querying historical transaction data poses minimal security risk; an agent cannot cause harm by reading blockchain information that is already public.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'getLatestTransactions' and description 'Get latest transactions' indicate data retrieval with no modification.
