What search_adgroups_add does on Tencent Ad MCP Server
AI agents use search_adgroups_add to create or update resources in Tencent Ad MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Tencent Ad MCP Server environment.
Why search_adgroups_add is rated Medium
This tool creates new search ad groups via the Tencent Ads Marketing API. Creation is a Write operation (reversible — ads can be deleted later). Severity is high because an AI agent misusing this tool could launch unauthorized ad campaigns spending real advertising budget, though the direct financial transaction is not initiated here (that would require a billing/payment tool).
From the tool's definition 创建搜索广告 (Create search ads) — the tool name 'add' and description explicitly indicate creation of new ad groups/search ads
