Explain the direct binary upload flow for AEM Assets Cloud Service with integration sequencing.
AI agents call aem_explain_upload_flow to retrieve information from Adobe Experience Assets Dev MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool explains/describes the upload flow process — it is purely informational/educational, returning documentation or guidance text. It does not perform any upload, write, or modification of data. 'Explain' clearly indicates a read-only, no-side-effect operation.
