WHAT IT DOES

What onboard_delegated_agent does on Tenzro Ledger MCP

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

RISK

Why onboard_delegated_agent is rated Medium

This tool creates/registers a new delegated agent identity authorized to act on behalf of a controller DID. It is a Write operation (creating a new agent record/identity), but carries high severity because it grants an agent authority to act on behalf of another identity, enabling potential privilege escalation or unauthorized actions if misused.
