WHAT IT DOES

What decide_import_row does on ComplyOS

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why decide_import_row needs a policy

The tool name indicates creation or modification of data ('decide' + 'import_row'), placing it in the Write category rather than Read. The lack of description reduces confidence to 0.65. Severity is medium because data import in a compliance system could affect audit records, but without evidence of deletion or financial operations, it does not rise to high/critical.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'decide_import_row' suggests data import operations that modify system state. Within a compliance auditing engine context, importing rows likely creates or modifies compliance records or configuration data.
