Transfer vesting to new beneficiary.
AI agents use change_vesting_beneficiary to create or update resources in Basis MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Basis MCP Server environment.
This tool modifies the beneficiary of a vesting contract, reassigning who receives the vested tokens. This is a Write operation (modifying existing data/state) rather than Destructive since the vesting itself isn't deleted, just transferred.
