update_enrollment · Eduframe MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What update_enrollment does on Eduframe

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why update_enrollment needs a policy

Updating an enrollment is a reversible Write operation—it modifies student/enrollment records but does not permanently delete data or commit financial transactions. The potential blast radius is medium because incorrect updates to educational enrollments could affect student records, course assignments, and progress tracking, but the change can be undone.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Update an enrollment', which modifies existing enrollment data. The server description confirms it 'enables listing, creating, updating, and deleting leads' with reversible operations.
