What get_errors does on Touchdesigner

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

Why get_errors needs a policy

This tool queries error and warning messages from a specified path in TouchDesigner. It is a read-only operation that retrieves existing information with no side effects, no data modification, and no code execution. The retrieval of diagnostic/logging information poses minimal risk even in an adversarial context, as errors and warnings are typically non-sensitive operational data.

From the tool's definition 'Return errors and warnings at `path`' - the tool retrieves diagnostic information without modifying state or executing code.
