What magento_describe does on Magector

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

Why magento_describe needs a policy

This tool reads di.xml files, processes them through an LLM to generate descriptive metadata, and caches those descriptions for attachment to search results. The operation is non-destructive and produces no side effects beyond creating cached metadata. While it calls an external API (Anthropic), it only reads and describes existing code, making it fundamentally a Read operation.

From the tool's definition Tool generates 'natural language descriptions' for di.xml files and 'descriptions are cached and automatically attached to search results'. The core action is retrieval and description generation with no modification to underlying code or data.
