WHAT IT DOES

What canary-session-create does on Nostr Bray

AI agents use canary-session-create to create or update resources in Nostr Bray, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Nostr Bray environment.

RISK

Why canary-session-create is rated Medium

The tool creates a new verification session, which is a Write operation (creating data/state). It doesn't execute code, delete data, or involve financial transactions. The 'two-party spoken verification' context suggests it initiates a trust/identity verification workflow. Severity is medium because misuse could create fraudulent verification sessions or be used in social engineering.
