## Why databricks_update_git_credential is rated Medium

This tool updates git credentials, which is a reversible write operation. It modifies authentication data but does not delete it (thus not Destructive) and does not move money (thus not Financial). The severity is medium rather than high because while credential modification could enable unauthorized access if misconfigured, the tool itself is scoped to git credentials rather than system-wide access controls.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'databricks_update_git_credential' explicitly indicates modification of git credentials. The 'update' verb signifies a write operation that modifies existing credential data."

## Use case

AI agents use databricks_update_git_credential 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.
