RISK

Why approve_yei_token is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies blockchain state (ERC20 token allowance) reversibly. It is not destructive since allowances can be modified or revoked. It is not financial in the strict sense of moving funds, though it is a prerequisite for financial operations.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Approve the Yei Finance Pool contract to spend a specified amount of an ERC20 token' — this is a write operation that modifies the token allowance state on-chain.
