# tool si.read.vertical

the vertical, or a brand whose vertical is meant: its chain by side with every stock's count and basis, its roles, its segments, its templates, its words and its rules.

[figure: Over MCP, si.read.vertical takes VerticalInput and returns a card whose body is Vertical.]

its chain by side with every stock's count and basis, its roles, its segments, its templates, its words and its rules. The call needs the read grant at the brand rung.
