Get the currently active pomodoro session
AI agents call get_active_session to retrieve information from TodoPomo MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves the state of the currently active Pomodoro session. It performs a query operation that returns information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any external actions. There is no blast radius for misuse—the worst outcome is viewing information about an active session.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_active_session' and description 'Get the currently active pomodoro session' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'Get' and the action of querying current state without modifying data align with Read category definition.
