## Why create_list_item is rated Medium

Creating a new item in a SharePoint list is a reversible write operation. It adds data to a structured list but does not delete, overwrite, execute code, or trigger external processes. The 'medium' severity reflects that an AI agent could create unintended list items, but the impact is bounded to list data in SharePoint and can be undone by deletion.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Create a new item in a SharePoint list' — the verb 'create' and action of adding a new item to a list indicates data creation."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
