## Why update-custom-value is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data reversibly within the GoHighLevel system. It does not delete data (hence not Destructive), does not execute arbitrary code (hence not Execute), and does not involve financial transactions (hence not Financial). The 'update' verb and lack of destructive language clearly map to the Write category.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'update-custom-value' and description 'Update Custom Value' indicate modification of data. The GoHighLevel context (contacts, opportunities, calendars, workflows) suggests this updates custom fields or attributes on business entities."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
