## Why insert_text_to_document is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies document content (text insertion), which is a reversible Write operation. Severity is medium because an AI agent misusing this could corrupt documents or inject unwanted content into shared files, but the changes can be undone.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'insert_text_to_document' indicates text insertion into a Google Doc. Sibling tools like 'batch_update_cells' and 'add_rows' are clearly Write operations. The server manipulates Google Docs and Drive documents."

## Use case

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