## Why update_article is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data (blog article content) in a reversible manner—updates can be undone by subsequent edits or rollbacks. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money. The medium severity reflects that misuse could alter published content visible to customers, but the impact is limited to article metadata/text and is reversible.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'update_article' and description 'Update a blog article' indicate modification of existing data. The verb 'Update' explicitly signals a write operation that modifies content reversibly."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
