## Why send_push_notification is rated Medium

This tool creates and sends a notification message to users, which is a reversible modification operation. While it doesn't create persistent data in traditional sense, it does deliver content to users and update their notification state. It's classified as Write rather than Execute because it performs a specific, bounded communication action rather than arbitrary code execution.

From the tool's own definition: "Send a push notification to mobile app users. **[Write]**"

## Use case

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