## Why add_team_member is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data (team membership) reversibly. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money. The blast radius is medium because adding unauthorized members to a team could escalate access to repositories and resources managed by that team, potentially compromising confidentiality or enabling further malicious actions, but the action itself is reversible.

From the tool's own definition: "'Add a member to a team' modifies team membership by creating a new association between a user and a team, which is a reversible write operation."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
