Preferences

Configure the React Native native preferences tools to read and mutate platform preferences under explicit store and key restrictions.

Register the Suite

await Ansight.initializeAndActivate(
  Ansight.createOptionsBuilder()
    .withPreferencesTools({
      allowedStores: ["standard"],
      allowedKeyPrefixes: ["debug."],
    })
    .withReadWriteToolAccess()
    .build(),
);

Registration API

withPreferencesTools(options): configures native preferences tool options.
remoteTools.preferences.defaultStore: sets the default store.
remoteTools.preferences.allowedStores: restricts stores.
remoteTools.preferences.allowedKeys / allowedKeyPrefixes: restrict keys.

Specific Concerns

Preference values often include configuration or user state.
Restrict stores, keys, or key prefixes at registration time.
prefs.set_value uses write.
prefs.remove_key uses critical and requires withAllToolAccess().

Tool Matrix

Name	Id	Policy	Description
`List Preference Keys`	`prefs.list_keys`	`Read`	Lists native preference keys.
`Get Preference Value`	`prefs.get_value`	`Read`	Reads one native preference value.
`Set Preference Value`	`prefs.set_value`	`Write`	Writes one native preference value.
`Remove Preference Key`	`prefs.remove_key`	`Critical`	Deletes one preference key.

Tool Details

Use read tools for inspection. Enable write and delete only for local workflows that need preference repair.
