WHAT IT DOES

What get_ios_install_method does on Yaver

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

RISK

Why get_ios_install_method is rated Low

This tool performs read-only introspection of the current iOS installation method configuration. It does not modify settings, execute builds, deploy code, or cause side effects. The return values ('auto', 'native', 'bundle') are merely reporting the existing state. This is a straightforward configuration query with no blast radius if misused.

From the tool's definition Tool name and description indicate a query operation: 'Get the current iOS install method. Returns...' — it retrieves and reports the current configuration state without modifying settings or triggering actions.
