What engine_info does on PineForge-Codegen

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

Why engine_info needs a policy

This tool only reads and reports static information about the backtest engine configuration. It has no side effects, cannot modify data, trigger external operations, or cause financial impact. It is a simple introspection/status query, consistent with the 'Read' category for tools that retrieve or query data without side effects.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Report the bundled backtest engine: mode, baked-in flag, and version' — a purely informational query that retrieves metadata about the engine without modifying, executing, or deleting anything.
