## Why update_chat_message_attachment is rated Medium

This tool modifies metadata properties of an existing attachment in a messaging system. It is reversible (description can be changed again, pinned state can be toggled) and has localized scope (affects only the specific attachment and its metadata).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Update[s] description and/or pinned state for a file attached directly to a Huly channel message'. The verb 'update' combined with modifying metadata (description, pinned state) indicates reversible modification of existing data."
