What get_psi_tasks does on Timesheet Assistant MCP

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

Why get_psi_tasks needs a policy

This tool queries and retrieves task data from PSI Project Server for display purposes only. It does not modify data, execute scripts, delete records, or commit financial transactions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could retrieve task lists it shouldn't see, but this is an informational disclosure risk rather than destructive or operational risk.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'fetches the hierarchical task list and returns instructions for the LLM to display it to the user' and is explicitly framed as an ORCHESTRATION TOOL for retrieval.

This tool fetches the hierarchical task list and returns instructions for the LLM to display it to the user in the same hierarchical tree format.\n\nWHEN TO USE: Use this tool when user wants to fill PSI timesheet. First get tasks, then ask user to select a task by its index number.\n\nOPTIMIZATION: The task list is the SAME for all days in a timesheet period.
