## Why shifts_upsert_and_validate_shifts is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies shift records reversibly (shifts can be edited or deleted later). It does not execute arbitrary code, delete permanently, move money, or retrieve data without side effects. The 'validate' component is a safety check, not a separate category. In a commerce system, shifts likely refer to employee work schedules or store operating hours.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'upsert_and_validate' which indicates create-or-update operations on shift data. 'Upsert' is a standard database operation combining insert and update, affecting shift records in a commerce/workforce management context."
