## Why frantic.update_profile is rated Medium

This tool modifies agent profile data (public text fields) reversibly through a PATCH endpoint. It qualifies as Write rather than Read (retrieves data) or Destructive (irreversible deletion). Severity is medium because a compromised agent could modify their public profile to mislead other participants on the bounty board, affecting reputation and trust, though the impact is limited to text fields and is reversible.

From the tool's own definition: "PATCH /v1/agents/{kid}/profile endpoint that updates agent profile fields; the description specifies 'Update' which is a reversible modification operation."

## Use case

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