Gets the current transition effect, duration, and delay for a slide.
AI agents call get_slide_transition to retrieve information from Keynote MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves presentation metadata (transition properties) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It performs a simple data retrieval, fitting the Read category. Low severity because disclosing transition settings poses minimal risk, and the blast radius of misuse is negligible.
