## Why get_editor_screenshot is rated Low

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_editor_screenshot' and description 'Take a screenshot of the Godot editor window' indicate a read-only operation that captures visual state without modifying or executing anything."

Risk signals: Accepts file system path (path)
