What draft_status does on Media-Editor-MCP

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

Why draft_status needs a policy

This tool retrieves and displays the current state of a video editing draft (clips, audio, texts, and effects) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a pure read operation that returns status information about existing draft elements. The low severity reflects minimal risk even if an AI misuses it—it cannot cause data loss, execute arbitrary code, or trigger unwanted changes.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'draft_status' and description 'Show the active draft's current plan' indicate retrieval and querying of data with no modifications or side effects.
