The Prime Directive forbids interference with the internal affairs of any society.

Wikipedia says that star trek prodigy has text of the actual prime directive and the closest is "not interfering with social development" and this might interfere with it? But they did mention diplomatic relations with the tendi family

Yeah, to make the most obvious parallel, I don't think it would have been cool for Picard to have taken steps to boost the House of Mogh's status within the Klingon Empire, in the name of diplomacy or otherwise.

And to be clear, I don't think any of this is a particularly big deal.
