RISK

Why adjust_audio_levels is rated Medium

This is a Write operation because it modifies existing media properties in a reversible manner. While it affects the final output, the change is non-destructive and can be easily reverted. Severity is medium because misuse could degrade audio quality in a project, but the effect is limited to audio levels and doesn't destroy data or execute arbitrary code.

From the tool's definition The tool description states it 'Adjusts the volume (gain) of an audio clip on the timeline' — this modifies audio properties of existing clips reversibly.

adjust_audio_levels Rate-limited

adjust_audio_levels stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
