What cancel_print does on Bambu Printer

AI agents call cancel_print to permanently remove resources in Bambu Printer — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Why cancel_print needs a policy

Cancelling a print job is irreversible — the in-progress print is destroyed, any partially printed object is ruined, and the job cannot be resumed. This is a destructive action with significant physical consequences (wasted filament, time, and potentially a failed part). It cannot be undone once triggered.
