RISK

Why email_mark_read is rated Medium

This tool modifies email state by changing the read/unread flag, which is a reversible Write operation. It does not retrieve data (Read), execute arbitrary code (Execute), permanently delete content (Destructive), or involve financial transactions (Financial). The blast radius is minimal since marking emails as read is non-destructive and easily undone by marking as unread.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'email_mark_read' and description 'Mark an email as read' indicate modification of email metadata state.

email_mark_read Rate-limited

email_mark_read 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.
