## Why create_dockercompose_application is rated Medium

This tool creates a new application resource from a Docker Compose file. It is a Write operation as it creates new data/resources on the Coolify platform. While it could potentially spin up containers, the primary action is resource creation, which is reversible (the application can be deleted). Severity is medium as misconfiguration could deploy unintended services.

From the tool's own definition: "Create an application from a Docker Compose file (no Git)."

## Use case

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