RISK

Why theprotocol_guildBid is rated Critical

Placing a bid locks stake (funds) against a task, which is a financial obligation. This falls squarely in the Financial category as it commits economic resources. The blast radius is high because an AI agent could place unauthorized bids locking funds on behalf of an organization without human approval.

From the tool's definition 'bid on an open task (locks the task's stake if required)' — bidding locks stake/funds, constituting a financial commitment
