## Why task_comments_add is rated Medium

This tool creates new comment records, which is a reversible write operation. Comments can typically be edited or deleted. The action has minimal blast radius—adding comments does not modify task data itself, delete records, execute code, or trigger financial transactions. This is a straightforward Write-category operation with low severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'task_comments_add' and description 'Add a comment to a task' indicate creation of new comment data on an existing task."

## Use case

AI agents use task_comments_add to create or update resources in Vikunja, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Vikunja environment.
