WHAT IT DOES

What edit_forum_topic does on Claudegram

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why edit_forum_topic needs a policy

The tool modifies forum topic properties (name, open/closed status, visibility) but does not delete data or execute arbitrary code. These changes are reversible—topics can be renamed again, reopened, or unhidden. This qualifies as Write rather than Execute because it modifies structured data through predefined parameters rather than executing arbitrary operations.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Редактировать тему: переименовать, закрыть, скрыть' (Edit topic: rename, close, hide). These are reversible modifications to forum topic metadata and state.
