What get_navigation_timing does on Mcp Rn Devtools

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

Why get_navigation_timing needs a policy

This tool reads performance metrics about navigation transitions in a React Native app. It does not modify, execute, delete, or trigger external operations—it only queries and returns timing information. This is a Read category tool with low severity since the information exposed (navigation timing) is low-sensitivity debugging metadata with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's definition Tool retrieves timing data for screen transitions ('Get navigation transition timing data — how long each screen transition takes'). It is a passive inspection/query operation with no side effects.
