AI agents use monday-archive-item to create or update resources in @mcp Server Monday — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your @mcp Server Monday environment.
Archiving reverses the item's active status but does not permanently delete it; the data remains recoverable and the action can be undone by unarchiving. This is a reversible modification, placing it in the Write category rather than Destructive. Severity is medium because archiving multiple items could disrupt workflows, but impact is contained to a single item and reversible.
