Why gamma_get_status is rated Low
This tool retrieves status information about an ongoing Gamma generation process. It performs a read-only poll operation that does not modify, create, delete, or execute any external operations. The word "poll" and "status" are characteristic of Read category tools. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius if misused—checking status repeatedly causes no harm.
From the tool's definition Tool name "gamma_get_status" and description "Poll the status of a Gamma generation" indicate a query/status-check operation with no side effects.
