Governed ability
Update term meta
aafm/update-term-meta Guarded write
Write a single allowlisted scalar meta value to a term you can edit.
How it is governed
The same model as every ability in the plugin, stated for this one.
- Off until you enable it
Like every ability, Update term meta ships switched off. You turn it on one at a time, and an update never widens access on its own.
- Guarded write
Writes stay conservative, and the plugin re-checks the capability before the call runs.
- Capability gated
A connection only sees Update term meta if the user you connected can run it, and the plugin checks that capability again before it executes.
- Every call audited
The call is written to the log in your own database, denials included, with the argument keys but never the values.

An illustrative run. Your real calls and data stay on your own site.

Example requests you could paste to your agent.
Set the brand_color meta on category 15 to blue.
Update the allowlisted subtitle meta for the term with id 30.
Write a custom scalar meta value onto a product category.
These are illustrative example prompts. The agent runs them as the user you connected, checked against that user's capabilities and written to your audit log.
