## Why ghl_publish_workflow is rated High

Publishing a workflow transitions it from draft to active state, enabling it to be triggered automatically. This is an Execute-class action because it activates automated processes that can run code, send messages, manipulate contacts, and perform other CRM operations at scale. Misuse could cause widespread unintended automation across all contacts/leads in the CRM.

From the tool's own definition: "'Publish a draft workflow, making it active and able to be triggered'"

## Use case

AI agents invoke ghl_publish_workflow to trigger actions in GoHighLevel MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
