## Why snow_add_comment is rated Medium

This tool modifies ServiceNow records by appending comments or work notes, which are reversible changes. It does not delete data (ruling out Destructive), execute arbitrary code (ruling out Execute), move money (ruling out Financial), or merely retrieve data (ruling out Read).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'snow_add_comment' and description 'Add comment/work note to record' indicate the tool creates new data (comments/work notes) within a ServiceNow record."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

  "tools": {
    "snow_add_comment": {
      "limits": [
        {
