Adding a tag creates a new, reversible project configuration setting.

An AI agent could add redundant or confusing tags, but this causes no harm beyond minor project clutter.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'unity_taglayer_add_tag' and description 'Add a new tag to the project' indicate creation of a new project configuration element. The verb 'Add' combined with 'tag' shows data creation.
