Why proxmox_notes_template is rated Medium
The tool generates templated notes content, which is a create/write operation that produces data artifacts. While it operates within a Proxmox management context, this specific tool's function is limited to template generation with variable substitution—a reversible write operation. It does not execute commands, delete data, modify running infrastructure, or commit financial transactions.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Generate notes template with optional variable substitution', indicating it creates or produces templated content without permanent destructive side effects or operational impacts on infrastructure.
