What get_release_context does on Blop

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

Why get_release_context needs a policy

This tool performs a read-only query operation on release context data. It retrieves structured information for decision support but does not create, modify, delete, or execute any actions. The 'get_' prefix and 'Return' verb confirm read semantics. No side effects or mutations are indicated. Risk is low as misuse would only expose information, not alter release state or trigger unwanted operations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_release_context' and description 'Return structured release brief' indicate a retrieval operation that queries and returns existing release metadata (decision, risk, blockers) without modifying any state.
