Get details for a specific vault.
AI agents call vault_get_vault to retrieve information from Vault 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 vault metadata/details without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward query operation on an Autodesk Vault server REST API with no side effects. Low severity because vault metadata disclosure has minimal risk; it does not expose sensitive file contents or enable further privileged actions.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'vault_get_vault' and description 'Get details for a specific vault' indicate data retrieval with no modification capability.
