## Why send-email is rated Medium

This tool creates and sends emails, which is a reversible write operation (emails can be unsent within a short window or manually deleted). 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 own definition: "Tool name 'send-email' and description 'Send an email' directly indicate creation and transmission of messages to recipients."

## Use case

AI agents use send-email to create or update resources in Meme MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Meme MCP Server environment.
