## Why seafile_create_directory is rated Medium

Creating a directory is a reversible write operation that modifies the file system structure but does not delete or destroy data. It has moderate blast radius if an AI agent creates many directories or in sensitive locations, but it can be undone by deleting the directory.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool named 'seafile_create_directory' with no description provided. Sibling tools include 'seafile_delete', 'seafile_move', 'seafile_rename', and 'seafile_read_file', establishing this as a file management server."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
