Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
This tool creates a new advertiser entity, which is reversible (it can be modified or archived as evidenced by the sibling 'archive_advertiser' tool). It has no destructive, financial, or code execution aspects. The blast radius is medium because creating advertiser records could impact campaign management and billing operations if misused, but the action itself is not irreversible.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create_advertiser' and description states 'Create a new advertiser'. The verb 'create' indicates the tool creates new data (an advertiser record) in the AdButler system.
