WHAT IT DOES

What editor_clear_errors does on Godot

AI agents use editor_clear_errors to create or update resources in Godot — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Godot environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why editor_clear_errors needs a policy

Clearing an error list modifies UI/editor state by removing displayed errors, but does not delete files or data. It is reversible in the sense that errors can reappear; however, it does modify (reset) the error list state. This is a Write-level action with low blast radius since it only affects the editor's error display.
