What yaver_auth_status does on Yaver

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

Why yaver_auth_status needs a policy

Even though yaver_auth_status 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.
