## Why wavexis_service_worker_update is rated High

This tool triggers an external browser operation — forcing a service worker registration to update. This is an action with side effects that depend on the target registration argument (which worker gets updated), fitting the Execute category. It doesn't delete data (not Destructive) or move money (not Financial), but it does initiate an external operation in the browser environment.

From the tool's own definition: "Trigger an update for a service worker registration"

## Use case

AI agents invoke wavexis_service_worker_update to trigger actions in Wavexis. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
