Why servicenow_sdk is rated Medium

An AI agent can call servicenow_sdk faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Servicenow Api by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

servicenow_sdk Rate-limited

servicenow_sdk stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
