## Why linear_removeProjectFromInitiative is rated Medium

Removing a project from an initiative modifies an association/relationship between entities in Linear. This is a reversible write operation (the project can be re-added), not a deletion of the project or initiative itself. Misuse could disrupt project organization but is recoverable.

From the tool's own definition: "Remove a project from an initiative"

## Use case

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