audit_file_inventory
AI agents call audit_file_inventory to retrieve information from GAM MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool name 'audit_file_inventory' strongly suggests it retrieves and reports on file inventory data, consistent with the other 'audit_*' sibling tools (audit_all_permissions, audit_file_counts, audit_owned_files, etc.) which appear to be read/query operations. However, the empty description lowers confidence.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'audit', which typically implies reading/querying data for review purposes; description is empty and uninformative.
