Governed ability

Update post SEO (Rank Math)

aafm/rankmath-update-post Guarded write

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 post SEO (Rank Math) 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 post SEO (Rank Math) 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.
