## Why snow_manage_mid_capabilities is rated Medium

MID Server capabilities control what integrations, discovery processes, and orchestration workflows can execute. Modifying these capabilities can enable or disable critical business processes, integrations with external systems, and data discovery operations across the enterprise. This is a Write operation because it creates or modifies server configurations reversibly.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'snow_manage_mid_capabilities' and description 'Manage MID Server capabilities for Discovery, Orchestration, and integrations' indicate configuration and capability management of MID (Management, Instrumentation, Discovery) Servers—core ServiceNow…"
