Get database storage statistics including total forecasts, storage sizes,
AI agents call get_storage_stats to retrieve information from Forecast Storage MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns database statistics about storage usage and forecast counts. It performs a read-only operation with no side effects, no data modification, no code execution, and no irreversible actions. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius even if misused by an agent—the worst outcome would be exposure of metadata about storage usage, which is not sensitive operational harm.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_storage_stats' and description 'Get database storage statistics including total forecasts, storage sizes' indicate retrieval of metrics/statistics with no modification capability.
