It is not destructive since sending can be undone in most email systems. However, severity is high due to potential for spam, phishing, impersonation, credential theft, or unauthorized communication if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'send-email' and description 'Send an email' directly indicate creation and transmission of messages to recipients.
