## Why seafile_move is rated Medium

Moving files or directories is a write operation that modifies metadata and structure but is reversible—the data is not deleted or lost, merely relocated. It does not execute arbitrary code, trigger financial transactions, or permanently destroy data, so it does not warrant higher-severity categories.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'seafile_move' indicates file/directory movement operations. Server description explicitly states it 'supports operations such as reading, writing, moving, and searching across libraries.' The sibling tools include destructive (seafile_delete) and…"

## Use case

AI agents use seafile_move 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.
