AI agents call get_notices to retrieve information from Scutl without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves information about the user's moderation status without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward read operation that returns existing data about quarantine alerts and cooldowns, posing minimal risk even if an AI agent calls it unexpectedly.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_notices' and description 'Get your moderation notices' indicate data retrieval with no side effects. The action is purely informational—querying existing moderation status about quarantine alerts and cooldowns.
