WHAT IT DOES

What comment.add does on Freedcamp MCP Server

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why comment.add needs a policy

This tool creates new comment data and persists it to the system, making it a Write operation. Severity is medium because while comments can be added maliciously or inappropriately, they are reversible (evident from the sibling tool 'comment.delete' on this server) and do not cause financial loss, execute arbitrary code, or permanently destroy data.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Add a comment' which is a create operation that modifies data by appending new content to tasks, milestones, discussions, files, or time entries.
