## Why asc_patch_app_info is rated Medium

This tool modifies app metadata (category relationships) but does not delete data irreversibly, execute arbitrary code, or create financial obligations. The changes are reversible—categories can be swapped or cleared. While it affects app store presentation and could have business implications if misconfigured, the impact is limited to app classification metadata.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Set primary/secondary category + subcategory relationships on an AppInfo' and 'AppInfoUpdateRequest is RELATIONSHIPS-ONLY (no mutable attributes)'."
