## Why check_material_match is rated Low

This tool performs validation or verification by examining the currently loaded material and comparing it against print requirements. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. It is a passive check operation with no side effects, fitting the 'Read' category of retrieving or querying data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'check_material_match' and description 'Check if the loaded material matches what a print expects' indicate a read-only query operation that retrieves and compares material properties without modifying any state."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
