AI agents call bluedart_track_shipment to retrieve information from Bluedart without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves shipment tracking information using an AWB (Air Waybill) number as input. It performs a query operation with no side effects, no data modification, no code execution, and no irreversible actions. The explicit 'Read-only' designation confirms it belongs in the Read category with low severity risk, as misuse would only expose shipping tracking data rather than enable destructive or financial harm.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'bluedart_track_shipment' combined with description explicitly stating 'Track a BlueDart shipment by AWB number. Read-only.' The descriptor 'Read-only' directly indicates retrieval of shipment status without modification.
