What get_document does on MemoryMesh

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

Why get_document needs a policy

The tool's name indicates document retrieval/fetching, which is a classic Read operation with no side effects. Although the description is empty, the server's explicit purpose (indexing and querying personal files without cloud transmission) and the pattern of sibling tools strongly suggest get_document retrieves indexed documents without modifying them.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_document' suggests retrieval of a document without modification. The server description emphasizes 'private semantic search' and 'query your data', positioning tools as read-only information retrieval.
