## Why get_viewport_screenshot is rated Low

The tool captures and returns an image of the current viewport state. This is a read-only operation with no side effects, no data modification, and no external execution. It merely observes and returns the current visual state of Blender's 3D viewport.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name and description: 'Capture a screenshot of the current Blender 3D viewport.' This retrieves visual data from the viewport without modifying any state, creating assets, or triggering external operations."

## Use case

AI agents call get_viewport_screenshot to retrieve information from Aos without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Aos:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_viewport_screenshot": {}
  }
}
```
