What get_pipeline_history does on GoCD MCP Server

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

Why get_pipeline_history needs a policy

This tool retrieves historical pipeline run data for analysis and investigation purposes. It performs a read-only query against the GoCD REST API to fetch and display existing pipeline execution records. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve information already available in the system's history logs.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Get[s] the run history of a pipeline' and 'Shows run numbers (counters), results, and stage information for each run.' These are purely informational queries with no side effects.
