## Why faction_accept_ally is rated Medium

This tool modifies diplomatic state by ratifying an alliance between factions, which is a reversible write operation (alliances can presumably be broken later). It does not delete data, execute code, or involve financial transactions. The blast radius is medium since accepting an alliance has significant in-game political consequences but is not irreversible.

From the tool's own definition: "Accept a pending alliance proposal... Ratifies the alliance on both sides."

## Use case

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