Get current UI state: which panels are open, what buttons are visible/enabled/disabled
AI agents call tv_ui_state to retrieve information from Tradingview without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves UI state information without modifying anything. It has no side effects and cannot cause damage if misused. Severity is low because the information disclosed (panel visibility, button states) is already visible to users and poses minimal security risk. The tool fits the Read category: retrieves or queries data with no side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get current UI state' with retrieval of panel visibility and button states. The verb 'Get' and lack of any modification language indicate read-only querying of UI properties.
