## Why gql_update_assignment_submission is rated Medium

This tool modifies assignment submission records by changing their status, which is a write operation. While the change is reversible (status can be updated again), the action affects student records and learning progress tracking, giving it medium severity due to potential impact on student academic records and course administration.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'update' and description states 'Update the status of an assignment submission', indicating modification of existing data. The status change (APPROVED, PENDING, REJECTED) is reversible since the tool allows updating to different states."

## Use case

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