WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why prepare_ai_model_for_print needs a policy

The tool name suggests preparing/processing an AI model for 3D printing, which likely involves executing preprocessing steps (slicing, file conversion, upload to printer). The description is empty, which lowers confidence. In the context of 3D printer control, 'prepare for print' typically involves multiple operations that could trigger external processes.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'prepare_ai_model_for_print' in context of a 3D printer control server with tools like OctoPrint, Moonraker, Bambu, Prusa, Elegoo integration
