What query_grid_visible does on Cocos
AI agents call query_grid_visible to retrieve information from Cocos without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why query_grid_visible is rated Low
This tool queries the visibility status of the editor grid, which is a non-destructive information retrieval operation with no side effects. It does not modify, execute commands, or affect any data or financial systems. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could at worst report incorrect grid visibility status, causing no harm to the project or editor state.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'query_grid_visible' and description 'Query grid visibility status' indicate a read-only operation that retrieves the current state of the grid visibility setting in the Cocos Creator editor.
