What get_project_context does on Ginialtech

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

Why get_project_context needs a policy

This tool only retrieves and returns file contents without side effects. It queries project context documentation to inform AI agents of conventions and requirements. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—the worst outcome is that an agent gains access to project context information, which is intended to be visible within the project scope.

From the tool's definition Tool performs a read-only operation: 'Reads AI_CONTEXT.md from the current project and returns its contents'. No modification, deletion, execution, or financial operation is described.
