Why create_survey is rated Medium
This tool creates new survey data, which is a Write operation—data is generated and persisted but remains modifiable and deletable. While surveys can influence respondents, the creation itself is not destructive or financial. Severity is medium because a misused tool could create misleading surveys or spam, but effects are reversible and confined to the survey platform.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create_survey' and description states 'Generate a professional survey...Returns the survey ID and shareable link', indicating creation of new data (a survey object) with reversible effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access

create_survey stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Inquira, apply this rule, and every create_survey call is checked against it from then on.
