RISK

Why GOOGLESUPER_MOVE_FILE is rated Medium

Moving files changes their location and organizational structure, which is a reversible modification of data state. This is a Write operation rather than Read (it has side effects), Destructive (file still exists, can be moved again), Execute (no code execution), or Financial (no monetary impact).

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'move[s] a file from one folder to another in Google Drive' and 'chang[es] their parent folder(s)'. These actions modify file organization/metadata reversibly without deleting or executing code.
