## Why add_work_item_to_module is rated Medium

The tool adds (creates an association) work items to modules without deleting or destroying data. This is a Write operation as it modifies the organizational structure of project items. Severity is medium because misuse could clutter module organization or associate items incorrectly, but the change is reversible (items can be removed from modules).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Add work items to a module' - this is a create/modify operation that associates existing work items with a module, which is a reversible change to relationships and organizational data."

## Use case

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