WHAT IT DOES

What save_edit_plan does on Cutpilot

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

RISK

Why save_edit_plan is rated Medium

This tool saves/persists project state to storage. While reversible (edits can be undone or overwritten), it modifies the primary artifact (a video editing project) and could result in loss of previous work if not used carefully. The high severity reflects that an AI agent misusing this could overwrite important editing work, though the action itself is not destructive in the sense of irreversible deletion.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'save_edit_plan' and description 'Validate and save an editable CutPilot JSON project' indicate creation/modification of project data.
