## Why check_accessibility is rated Low

This tool performs document analysis and validation (checking for accessibility issues) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations with side effects. It is purely informational and fits the Read category. The severity is low because accessibility scanning has no blast radius—it cannot harm the document, financial systems, or external operations.

From the tool's own definition: "The tool description states it 'Scan[s] the document for accessibility issues' — a scanning/auditing operation that retrieves information about the document without modifying it."

## Use case

AI agents call check_accessibility to retrieve information from Docx without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

```json
{
