RISK

Why mark_item_read is rated Medium

This tool modifies the read status of a news item, which is a reversible write operation. It changes metadata state but does not create, destroy, or execute arbitrary code. The blast radius is minimal—only the read flag of a single item is affected, and the change can be undone by marking it unread.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'mark_item_read' and description 'Mark a single news item as read' indicate a state modification action on a news/feed item.
