## Why update_task_list is rated Medium

This tool modifies task list data reversibly through Google Tasks. While it changes user data (medium severity due to potential for unintended task modifications affecting workflows), it does not delete data (not Destructive), execute arbitrary code (not Execute), involve financial transactions (not Financial), or merely retrieve information (not Read).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'update_task_list' and description 'Update an existing task list' indicate modification of existing data without deletion or financial impact."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
