Why swiftsign_send_from_template is rated Medium
This tool creates or modifies document state by instantiating an envelope from a template and assigning signers. While it can trigger email sends, the primary effect is creation of a reversible record. It falls under Write rather than Execute because it doesn't run arbitrary code or shell commands—it follows a structured workflow within the e-signature platform.
From the tool's definition Tool 'sends an envelope' and 'nothing is emailed until confirmed' — creates a new envelope document state that is reversible (can be voided via swiftsign_void_envelope).
