Get information about the current Webots world.
AI agents call webots_get_world_info to retrieve information from Webots MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns data about the simulation world state without modifying, executing operations, or triggering external changes. It is a read-only informational retrieval function, consistent with the Read category pattern (get, fetch, retrieve). Blast radius is minimal as misuse would only expose simulation metadata.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'get' and description states 'Get information about the current Webots world' — retrieves world metadata with no side effects
