What check_trust does on Agentforge Trust

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

Why check_trust needs a policy

check_trust retrieves pre-computed trust metrics and audit data from the AgentForge system without side effects. It enables informed decision-making before connecting to servers but does not itself execute code, modify data, delete records, or move funds.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Fetch[es] the AgentForge Trust Score' and 'Returns' data—purely retrieval operations with no modification, deletion, or execution of external code.
