What batch_download_results does on Gemini MCP Server

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

Why batch_download_results needs a policy

This tool retrieves and reads data from completed batch jobs (read operation), then saves parsed results locally. While it does write to the local filesystem, this is incidental to the primary read operation and is non-destructive. The tool cannot modify existing data, execute code, trigger external side effects beyond retrieving pre-computed results, or perform financial operations.

From the tool's definition Tool DOWNLOADS and PARSES results from completed batch jobs, RETURNS results array, SAVES to local file. No creation, modification, deletion, or execution of external operations—purely retrieval and local file writing of already-computed results.
