## Why contact_update is rated Medium

The tool modifies data reversibly by updating contact/company records. While it affects important business data (contacts), it does not delete data (would be Destructive), move money (Financial), or execute arbitrary code (Execute). The 'medium' severity reflects that contact data corruption could disrupt business operations, but the reversible nature prevents a 'high' rating.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'contact_update' and description 'Update an existing contact/company in AbraFlexi' explicitly indicate modification of existing data."

## Use case

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