## Why arvan_ssh_upload_file is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies files on a remote server through SFTP, which is a reversible operation (files can be edited or deleted later). While it has significant blast radius—an AI agent could overwrite critical configuration files, application code, or system files—it does not irreversibly destroy data or execute arbitrary code directly.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name includes 'upload_file' and description states 'Write content to a file on the server via SFTP', directly indicating file creation/modification via remote access."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
