RISK

Why create_invoice is rated Medium

This tool creates financial documents (invoices) which are business-critical records. While invoice creation itself is reversible (invoices can typically be voided or deleted in accounting systems), it creates enforceable financial records that trigger downstream business processes. It modifies financial state by generating a new invoice, making it Write rather than Read.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_invoice' and description 'Create an invoice in Sanka from explicit customer, line item, and invoice-level custom_fields data' clearly indicate data creation.
