Get all game rules for the current world via RCON. Server must be running.
AI agents call get_game_rules to retrieve information from Minecraft Server MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves configuration data (game rules) from a Minecraft server via RCON. It performs no modifications, deletions, or command execution—it only queries and returns existing state. While the broader server has destructive and execute capabilities (evidenced by sibling tools like delete_world and execute_command), this specific tool is purely informational.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_game_rules' and description 'Get all game rules for the current world' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'Get' and lack of any modification, deletion, or execution language confirm this is a query-only action.
