What find_available_slot does on Posterly

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

Why find_available_slot needs a policy

The tool performs a read-only lookup of available posting times based on timezone and workspace constraints. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations—it merely queries and returns scheduling availability. The blast radius if misused is minimal, as an AI agent requesting this tool cannot cause data loss, execute commands, or move money; it can only receive timing information.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Find[s] available time slots' and 'Returns up to 10 slots.' This is a query operation that retrieves scheduling information without modifying any data.
