WHAT IT DOES

What crow_wallabag_update does on Crow

RISK

Why crow_wallabag_update is rated Medium

The tool modifies existing data (article status flags and tags) reversibly without permanent deletion or destructive capability. An AI agent could misuse this by modifying articles belonging to other users if permissions are not properly scoped, affecting data integrity and user workflow, warranting medium severity. Confidence is high given the explicit 'Update' and verb-driven description.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'crow_wallabag_update' with description explicitly stating 'Update an article: toggle starred/archived status, change tags' indicates modification of article metadata.
