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

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

  "method": "tools/call",

## Why update_contact_task is rated Medium

This tool modifies task information reversibly (tasks can be updated again or reverted), which falls squarely into the Write category. Severity is medium because misuse could corrupt task records or workflow state, affecting business operations and contact management, but damage is not permanent and the scope is limited to a single contact's task data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'update_contact_task' and description 'Update a task for a contact' indicate modification of existing task data associated with a contact record."

## Use case

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