WHAT IT DOES

What lemmy_block_user does on Crow

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

RISK

Why lemmy_block_user is rated Medium

Blocking a user modifies account state (block list) in a reversible way — the block can be undone — and affects what content is shown to the acting user. No data is deleted, no code is executed, and no financial action occurs. The rate limit (5/hour) suggests meaningful but contained impact.

lemmy_block_user Rate-limited

lemmy_block_user stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
