What discover_projs does on Sl Test

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

Why discover_projs needs a policy

This tool only reads/scans the filesystem to discover project files. It has no side effects, does not modify any data, and simply returns information about what files exist. Misuse potential is minimal.
