WHAT IT DOES

What email_move_message does on ScopeGate

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

RISK

Why email_move_message is rated Medium

Moving an email is a reversible write operation that changes the location/state of data (mailbox/folder assignment) without permanently deleting it. The agent could misuse this to reorganize, hide, or misfiled sensitive emails, causing confusion or loss of discoverability. This is less severe than deletion (Destructive) but represents data modification with potential for user confusion or compliance issues.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'email_move_message' and description 'Move an email message to a different mailbox/folder' indicate modification of email organization state.

email_move_message Rate-limited

email_move_message stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
