## Why reactivate_alerts is rated Medium

This tool modifies the state of existing alerts by changing them from cleared/deferred back to active. This is a reversible state change (Write), not destructive, and does not execute code or move money. Severity is medium because misuse could flood operators with spurious alerts or mask genuine alert management workflows.

From the tool's own definition: "Reactivate cleared or deferred alerts by key"

## Use case

AI agents use reactivate_alerts to create or update resources in API-Central, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your API-Central environment.
