What remediate_vulnerability does on Secureaudit

AI agents call remediate_vulnerability to retrieve information from Secureaudit without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why remediate_vulnerability needs a policy

The tool provides/returns remediation templates and code snippets — it retrieves pre-compiled content for the user to review and apply. It does not itself modify any files, execute code, or make changes; it is essentially a lookup/fetch of secure coding templates. Severity is low because misuse would at worst deliver incorrect guidance, not cause direct system harm.
