## Why get_validation_summary is rated Low

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_validation_summary' and description 'Get high-level file quality summary with health score' indicate read-only retrieval of validation metrics and quality data with no modification, deletion, or execution of external operations."

## Use case

AI agents call get_validation_summary to retrieve information from TwinCAT Validator MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
