Why ebay_resume_campaign is rated High
Resuming a campaign triggers an external operation on eBay's platform — reactivating a marketing campaign that will begin spending ad budget and displaying ads to users. This is an Execute category action because it triggers an external operational state change with real consequences (ad spend, visibility), though it doesn't directly move money itself.
