WHAT IT DOES

What detect_print_failure does on Kiln

AI agents call detect_print_failure 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.

RISK

Why detect_print_failure is rated Low

The name suggests a monitoring/detection operation (Read category), as it appears to analyze or query the current state of a 3D print to identify failures. However, with an empty description, there is uncertainty about whether it might trigger any corrective actions (Execute).

From the tool's definition Tool name 'detect_print_failure' — description is empty and uninformative.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs detect_print_failure safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Kiln, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For detect_print_failure, this is the rule to start with:

detect_print_failure Allowed

detect_print_failure is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "detect_print_failure": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Kiln, apply this rule, and every detect_print_failure call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about detect_print_failure

What does the detect_print_failure tool do? +

How do I enforce a policy on detect_print_failure? +

Register the Kiln MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for detect_print_failure: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Kiln. Nothing to install.

What risk level is detect_print_failure? +

detect_print_failure is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit detect_print_failure? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the detect_print_failure rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block detect_print_failure completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for detect_print_failure. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides detect_print_failure? +

detect_print_failure is provided by the Kiln MCP server (codeofaxel/Kiln). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
