# summarize_td_errors

Read-only: collect errors across a network and cluster them by message, type, or parent container, with the worst-offending nodes and a suggested order to investigate. Returns {total, groups[], suggestions[]}. Use this for network-wide triage instead of reading every node

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "summarize_td_errors",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why summarize_td_errors is rated Low

This tool retrieves and analyzes existing error state without side effects. It performs triage and reporting on diagnostic data, which is a read operation. The low severity reflects that misuse only exposes existing error information and cannot alter system state, trigger operations, or affect the visual project.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool is explicitly marked as 'Read-only' and 'collect errors across a network' without modifying or executing anything. It returns aggregated data structures (total, groups[], suggestions[]) for diagnostic purposes."

Risk signals: Bulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets

## Use case

AI agents call summarize_td_errors to retrieve information from tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server 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 tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server:

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