What gql_pin_post does on Thinkific MCP Server
AI agents use gql_pin_post to create or update resources in Thinkific MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Thinkific MCP Server environment.
Why gql_pin_post is rated Medium
Pinning a post modifies its properties (pin status, visibility order) but does not create, delete, or irreversibly alter data. This is a write operation that can be undone by unpinning. The blast radius is medium because it affects content visibility and user experience across a space, but does not compromise financial data, delete content, or execute arbitrary code.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'pin_post' and description 'Pin a post in its space' indicate modification of post metadata/status, which is a reversible change to data state.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs gql_pin_post safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Thinkific MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For gql_pin_post, this is the rule to start with:
gql_pin_post stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Thinkific MCP Server, apply this rule, and every gql_pin_post call is checked against it from then on.

gql_pin_post is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the gql_pin_post rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for gql_pin_post. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
