WHAT IT DOES

What duplicate_table_row does on Docx

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

RISK

Why duplicate_table_row is rated Medium

This tool modifies a document by adding a new row (copying an existing one), which is reversible and classifies as Write. The operation has low blast radius since duplicating table rows is a benign content modification with no destructive, financial, or code execution implications. No data loss or irreversible changes occur.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Deep-copy a table row and insert the copy immediately after it' — creates new content (a duplicated row) within a document without deleting or overwriting existing data.

duplicate_table_row Rate-limited

duplicate_table_row stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
