## Why DNS_validateDNSRecordsV1 is rated Low

This tool only reads and validates DNS records without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. It returns validation status codes (200 Success or 422 Validation error) to inform the user whether records are valid, with no side effects. This is a classic Read operation—it queries and checks data without altering state.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'validate' and description states 'Validate DNS records prior to update' and 'verify DNS record validity before applying changes'. The tool performs validation/verification without making any modifications to DNS records or other data."

Risk signals: Accepts raw HTML/template content (zone[].records[].content)
