AI agents call vibekit_agent_status to retrieve information from Vibekit without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves status data about an application, which is a read-only operation with no side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. The severity is low because status information is typically non-sensitive operational metadata, and misuse would have minimal blast radius.
