## Why check_bazarr is rated Low

This tool retrieves system health and version information from a Bazarr subtitle management server. It has no side effects, does not modify data, and does not execute arbitrary commands. The 401 response handling indicates it checks connectivity and authentication state without triggering any state changes.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool performs a GET request to check server health status and retrieve a version string. The description explicitly states it uses GET /api/system/status, which is a read-only operation that queries system information without modification."

## Use case

AI agents call check_bazarr to retrieve information from Mcp Nettools without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
