What get_document_snapshot does on Huly

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

Why get_document_snapshot needs a policy

Even though get_document_snapshot only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
