What get_testcase_details does on Testdino

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

Why get_testcase_details needs a policy

Even though get_testcase_details only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
