## Why rhino_render_setup is rated Medium

This tool modifies render settings (resolution, samples, engine, transparency) in the active Rhino render context. These are configuration changes that can be reversed by restoring previous settings. No code execution, deletion, or financial transactions are involved — it's a Write operation that adjusts application state.

From the tool's own definition: "Set render resolution / samples / engine / transparency on the active render context"

## Use case

AI agents use rhino_render_setup to create or update resources in Rhino, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Rhino environment.
