> Read pane output; accepts no client-supplied executable input. Returned content may be sensitive or untrusted. Calls up to sixteen eligible inspect tools serially; inner tools receive no separate approval. Retained rows contain full nested envelopes, oversized results are marked resultTruncated, and the complete JSON-RPC response is at most 1,000,000 bytes.
