Why theprotocol_agentBuilderGenerateTemplate is rated Medium
This tool creates template definitions for agent builders based on provided specifications. Template generation is a Write operation because it produces new configuration/definition data that can be modified or deleted. Severity is medium because misuse could create malformed or malicious agent templates that propagate through the platform, affecting multiple deployments, but the operation itself is reversible.
From the tool's definition "Generate a new agent-builder template from spec" — the verb "generate" and "new" indicate creation of a template artifact, a reversible write operation.
