What find_duplicates does on Lutris MCP Server

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

Why find_duplicates needs a policy

The tool reads and compares existing game entries in the Lutris database to identify duplicates based on directory paths or slug similarity. This is a non-destructive, side-effect-free query operation. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. The blast radius of misuse is minimal (an AI might report false positives or spam duplicate detection), warranting low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Find[s] potential duplicate games' — a query/search operation that identifies matching records.
