## Why slides_generate is rated Medium

This tool creates new presentation files, which are data artifacts. It is reversible (presentations can be deleted or regenerated), so it does not qualify as Destructive. It does not execute arbitrary code, run queries, or move money, so Execute, Financial, and Destructive are ruled out.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool generates (creates) a PowerPoint presentation using pre-built themes via 2slides.com API. The verb 'generate' combined with the output of 'a PowerPoint presentation' indicates creation of a new artifact."
