What get_error_traces does on Monti APM MCP Server

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

Why get_error_traces needs a policy

This tool retrieves and queries performance monitoring data (error traces, stack traces, metadata) from a Monti APM system with no side effects. It supports filtering by error attributes but does not create, modify, delete, or execute any actions. The primary function is inspection and analysis of historical error data, which is characteristic of a Read operation.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Retrieve[s] error occurrence traces' with filtering capabilities. No modification, deletion, or execution of operations described—only data retrieval and querying of existing error logs.
