Read ONVIF device scopes from camera via LAN RCP command 0x0a98 (Gen2 only).
AI agents call bosch_camera_onvif_scopes to retrieve information from Bosch Smart Home Camera MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves device metadata without side effects. It queries camera configuration scopes via LAN RCP command 0x0a98, which is a read-only information gathering operation. No data is modified, deleted, or external actions triggered. The blast radius is minimal—leaked metadata could inform reconnaissance but poses no direct harm to the camera or connected systems.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'Read' and description explicitly states 'Read ONVIF device scopes from camera'. ONVIF scopes are configuration metadata (device name, location, hardware info) that do not alter system state.
