What pg_config does on Planning Game

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

Why pg_config needs a policy

This tool only retrieves configuration information without modifying, executing, or deleting any data. While it may expose sensitive information like credentials paths and environment variables, the tool itself performs no side effects—it is purely informational.

From the tool's definition Tool name and description explicitly state 'View MCP server configuration' and lists read-only operations: viewing instance name, Firebase project, credentials path, user config, and environment variables.
