This tool retrieves framework control data from a compliance dashboard. Fetching and reading data without side effects, creation, modification, or deletion clearly maps to the Read category.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'fetch_dashboard_framework_controls' indicates a retrieval/query operation via the 'fetch' verb. The empty description limits certainty, but the server context describes using it to 'retrieve compliance insights, dashboard data' without modification."
