## Why messages_send_email is rated Medium

This tool creates and sends email messages, which is a reversible write operation. Severity is high because an AI agent with unrestricted access could send emails to arbitrary recipients with arbitrary content, potentially impersonating the user, committing fraud, spamming, or causing reputational harm.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Compose and send an email' with ability to add 'subject, CC/BCC, and attachments.' The verb 'send' indicates creation and transmission of new email data."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
