RISK

Why set_reminder_preferences is rated Medium

This tool modifies reminder preferences, which is a reversible configuration change with no side effects beyond storing user settings. It does not delete data (not Destructive), execute external code (not Execute), create new tasks or records (Write rather than more severe), or involve financial transactions (not Financial).

From the tool's definition Tool name 'set_reminder_preferences' and description 'Update local reminder preferences' indicate modification of configuration data. The word 'Update' explicitly signals a write operation that changes stored preferences.

set_reminder_preferences Rate-limited

set_reminder_preferences stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
