## Why set_addon_options is rated Medium

This tool modifies add-on configuration settings. While reversible (not destructive), it could have significant side effects depending on what options are changed—restarting services, altering security policies, or changing network bindings. The high severity reflects that misconfiguration could disrupt home automation services.

From the tool's own definition: "Set configuration options for an add-on (sent as {'options': options}). The verb 'set' combined with 'configuration options' indicates modification of add-on settings, which is a reversible write operation."

## Use case

AI agents use set_addon_options to create or update resources in Ha Nexus Agent, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Ha Nexus Agent environment.
