WHAT IT DOES

What unblockUsersDms does on Xdevplatform/xmcp

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why unblockUsersDms needs a policy

This tool modifies an account's DM block list by removing a block entry — a reversible write operation. Misuse could expose a user to unwanted direct messages from previously blocked accounts, but it does not delete data or have financial implications.
