get_effective_oop_policy
Resolve the active OOP validation policy for a file or directory (walks ancestor dirs for .twincat-validator.json)
How to use it
get_effective_oop_policy is exposed by the Twincat Validator MCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), and the get_effective_oop_policy tool becomes available to the model automatically. See the full listing for setup details and every tool this server provides.
