WHAT IT DOES

What insert_blockquote does on Docx

AI agents use insert_blockquote 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 insert_blockquote is rated Medium

The tool creates and inserts a new blockquote element into the document structure. This is a reversible modification (Write category) rather than Read (no data retrieval), Execute (not running code/commands), Destructive (insertion is reversible via undo/deletion), or Financial.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'insert_blockquote' and description states 'Insert a blockquote paragraph after the given paragraph.' This is a create/modify operation that adds content to a Word document.

insert_blockquote Rate-limited

insert_blockquote 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.
