    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_dataset" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Read one published dataset (the JSON behind a chart), e.g. "sp500/drawdowns", "sp500/pe", "ndx/forward-pe", "recessions". Rows can be filtered by `since`/`until` on their `date` (or `year`). A result is capped at about 60,000 characters: when a file is larger (long daily series), each array keeps its most recent rows and the cut is reported under `windowed`. Scalars and summary fields are always included.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Search the site's charts by topic or question (e.g. "bear markets", "Shiller CAPE", "Nasdaq 100 drawdown", "monthly seasonality"). Returns each chart's title, the question it answers, its page and the dataset path to pass to get_dataset.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
