What get_project_settings does on Godot MCP Unified

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

Why get_project_settings needs a policy

This tool retrieves configuration data from Godot's project settings file without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It has a narrow, passive scope limited to querying existing project configuration. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could at most enumerate project settings to understand the game structure, which poses no security risk.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_project_settings' combined with description 'Read and parse project.godot settings. Can filter by section or specific key.' explicitly indicates read-only operations with no modification capability.
