RISK

Why powerpoint_insert_slide is rated Medium

This tool creates/modifies a PowerPoint presentation by adding a new slide, which is a reversible change (slides can be deleted). It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money. While it could be abused to inject unwanted content into presentations, the blast radius is limited to document modification within a single file.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'powerpoint_insert_slide' and description 'Insert a new slide in PowerPoint' directly indicate creation of new content within a document. The verb 'insert' is a reversible write operation.
