WHAT IT DOES

What find_design_templates does on Kiln

AI agents call find_design_templates 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 find_design_templates is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only retrieval of public design templates matching a use case. It has no side effects, does not execute code or commands, does not modify data, and does not delete or commit financial transactions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal since an AI agent can only retrieve information already marked public.

From the tool's definition find_design_templates: 'Find public design-template summaries' — retrieves and queries existing public design templates without modification or execution.

find_design_templates Allowed

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