## Why cdp_create_audience_def is rated Medium

The tool creates new data (audience definition) in Acquia's CDP system, which is a Write operation. Severity is medium because misconfigured or malicious audience definitions could inadvertently affect marketing campaigns or data segmentation, but the operation is reversible and does not directly delete data or move money. Confidence is high given the explicit 'create' verb in both name and description.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'cdp_create_audience_def' and description 'Create a new audience definition' indicate creation of new data in the CDP system. This is reversible (audience definitions can be deleted or modified)."

## Use case

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