WHAT IT DOES

What update_poll does on AIquila — Nextcloud MCP Server

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

RISK

Why update_poll is rated Medium

This tool modifies poll settings in a reversible manner. It creates or updates data (the poll configuration) without permanently deleting information or triggering financial transactions or code execution. The blast radius is medium because misconfiguration of poll expiration or other settings could affect shared collaboration objects, but changes remain reversible through subsequent updates.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'update_poll' combined with description 'Update a poll configuration. Only provided fields are changed.' indicates modification of existing data. The ability to set expiration dates (unix timestamp) shows reversible configuration changes.
