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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why vikunja_templates is rated Medium

Templates are reusable structures that are created or updated but not irreversibly deleted by this tool (destruction would likely be a separate operation). The impact is reversible data modification scoped to template objects. Severity is medium because template misuse could create many unwanted tasks or corrupt project structures, but blast radius is limited to the Vikunja instance and affected teams/projects.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Manage task templates for creating consistent tasks and project structures' — the verb 'manage' combined with template functionality indicates creation and modification of template data."

## Use case

AI agents use vikunja_templates 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.
