## Why process_refund is rated Critical

This tool commits financial obligations by reversing payments through Stripe. Refunds are inherently financial operations that move money and alter account balances. Even with constraints like partial/full amount selection, misuse by an AI agent could result in unauthorized refunds, customer disputes, and direct monetary loss. This is the most severe category applicable.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Issue a Stripe refund for a payment' which directly indicates movement of money and financial obligation reversal. Refunds are irreversible financial transactions that reduce account balances."

## Use case

AI agents use process_refund to commit financial operations through Businys, usually the final step of a payment, billing, or trading workflow. A call moves real money.
