.. include:: ../Includes.txt .. _ask-ai-agent-tab-severity: ==================== Tab: Severity policy ==================== **Path:** :guilabel:`AI Foundation > AI Agent > Severity policy` **What it shows:** how the AI agent treats each tool, based on the severity the tool declares. .. list-table:: :header-rows: 1 :widths: 20 80 * - Severity - Behaviour in the AI agent * - **Read** - Runs automatically. Results appear as tool-call steps in the chat. * - **Write** - Prepares a change card. The change is written through the TYPO3 DataHandler only after you click :guilabel:`Apply`. * - **Destructive** - Red change card with a two-step confirmation (:guilabel:`Confirm (1 of 2)`, then :guilabel:`Apply (2 of 2)`). * - **Unclassified** - Locked. The tool cannot run until its extension declares a severity. Below the table, one card per severity lists the tools and the extension that provides them. **What you do here:** check which tools can change data before you grant the AI agent to editors. To block individual tools, use the settings described in :ref:`ask-ai-agent-tab-governance`. .. important:: Write and destructive tools never write on their own. The AI agent always shows a change card and waits for your explicit approval.
