This tool retrieves the current state of a live performance (scenes, energy metrics, and recommended moves) in Ableton Live. It queries existing data without creating, modifying, deleting, executing code, or moving money. The 'safe moves' reference suggests recommendations based on current state analysis, which remains a read operation. No side effects or data mutations are indicated.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_performance_state' and description 'Get current live performance overview' indicate retrieval of state information with no modification capability. Keywords 'Get' and 'overview' are consistent with read-only query operations.
