AI agents call list_shipping_profiles to retrieve information from Kiln without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and displays existing shipping profile data without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a simple data retrieval function. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only enumerate shipping profiles, which poses no security or operational risk to the 3D printer systems.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_shipping_profiles' with description 'List saved local shipping profiles.' The verb 'list' and action of retrieving saved profiles indicate a read-only query operation with no side effects.
