AI agents call gt_beads_ready to retrieve information from Ruflo without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries the status of workflow components ('beads') to identify which ones are available for execution. It performs no mutations, creates no side effects, and does not trigger any external operations. It is purely informational/retrieval in nature, consistent with the Read category.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'gt_beads_ready' with description 'List beads that are ready to work on (no unresolved dependencies)' — the verb 'List' indicates a read-only query operation that retrieves and displays status information without modifying any state.
