## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "vikunja_task_assignees",
    "arguments": {}

```

## Why vikunja_task_assignees is rated Medium

Assigning or unassigning users to/from tasks creates or modifies task assignment relationships. While these operations are reversible (can be undone by reassigning), they materially change task state and metadata. This falls under Write rather than Read (listing assignees is read-only but the primary function is modification).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'assign users, unassign users, list assignees' — assign/unassign operations modify task state by adding or removing user assignments, which are reversible changes to task data."

## Use case

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