RISK

Why create_inbox is rated Medium

This tool creates a new email inbox, which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, or move money. The severity is medium because an agent misusing this could create many inboxes (resource exhaustion, potential cost implications if inboxes are metered), but the action is not inherently destructive or financial in nature.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a new email inbox' — a creation operation that modifies state by adding a new resource to the system.
