As fred points out <$action-setfield tags="tag1"/> is to set the whole tags field to tag1, obliterating any other contents.
Since tags can hold more than one tagname or title you must treat it as a list and use the actions designed for tags or use the listop actions. Unless of course you want "obliteration" of the tags field.
