## Why databricks_create_group is rated Medium

This tool creates new group identities in Databricks, a reversible data modification operation. It does not execute arbitrary code (Execute), delete data (Destructive), or move money (Financial). Creating groups modifies access control configurations and organizational structures, warranting 'high' severity due to potential blast radius if an agent creates unauthorized groups or disrupts IAM/RBAC configurations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'databricks_create_group' indicates creation of a new group entity. No description provided, but following Databricks naming conventions, 'create_*' tools are write operations."

## Use case

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