## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why set_run_color is rated Medium

The tool modifies document formatting (font color) in a Microsoft Word document, which constitutes a Write operation. It creates or modifies data reversibly—the color change can be undone or changed again. The severity is medium because while formatting changes affect document appearance, they do not destroy data, execute arbitrary code, or cause financial impact.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'set_run_color' and description 'Set the font color of a specific run in a paragraph' indicate modification of document formatting properties. This is a reversible change operation on document content."

## Use case

AI agents use set_run_color 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.
