WHAT IT DOES

What instagram_post_image does on Mimi Seed

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why instagram_post_image needs a policy

The tool name strongly implies posting an image to Instagram, which is a Write action (creating a new social media post). This is irreversible in practice (though technically deletable), but not 'Destructive' by definition. Severity is high because an AI agent misusing this could publish unauthorized content publicly. Confidence is reduced due to the empty description providing no confirmation of exact behavior.
