Why resolve_missing_task_findings is rated Medium
This tool modifies task/finding records by resolving or closing them, which is a reversible write operation. It does not delete data (would be Destructive) nor execute arbitrary code (would be Execute). The severity is medium because resolving findings could affect task tracking workflows and agent decision-making, but the action is reversible if needed.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'resolve_missing_task_findings' indicates it modifies the state of findings by marking them as resolved. The verb 'resolve' implies updating or closing records rather than reading them.
