Why create_lobby_manager is rated Medium
This tool generates/creates a script file within the s&box game engine. It writes code artifacts (lobby manager scripts) to the project, which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute code, delete data irreversibly, or involve financial transactions. The blast radius is medium since it creates game logic files that could affect multiplayer session management.
