What get_doc does on Gamedev

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

Why get_doc needs a policy

This tool performs a read-only operation: it retrieves and returns existing game development documentation. There are no side effects, data modifications, code execution, deletions, or financial operations. The tool simply fetches content by ID, which is a standard data retrieval operation. Even though documentation can be large (50KB+), accessing it causes no harm or unintended consequences.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_doc' and description 'Fetch a specific game development doc by ID. Returns the full document content' indicate retrieval of documentation without modification or execution.
