RISK

Why sandboxes_candidate_previews_create is rated High

The word 'Run' indicates execution of an operation. The tool creates candidate previews within sandboxes, which likely triggers execution of a build/preview pipeline. 'Create' could be Write, but 'Run...through the...operation catalog' suggests active execution rather than a simple data write. Confidence is moderate because the description is vague and does not detail exactly what side effects occur.
