MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

High Risk

The most dangerous Zendesk Admin MCP Server tools

Write · High zda_reorder_triggers This tool modifies the evaluation order of Zendesk triggers, which are business logic rules for ticket routing and automation.

1 of Zendesk Admin MCP Server's 9 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control Zendesk Admin MCP Server

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Zendesk Admin MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. These are the rules we recommend:

Rate limit write operations

{
  "zda_reorder_triggers": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "zda_reorder_triggers_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations

{
  "zda_account_settings": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "zda_account_settings_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
