WHAT IT DOES

What create_sequence does on Starfield

AI agents use create_sequence to create or update resources in Starfield, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Starfield environment.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`name`	string	Yes	Sequence name (e.g. "Cold Outreach Q2 2026")
`steps`	array	—	Initial sequence steps. Can also add steps later with add_sequence_step.
`mailboxId`	string	—	Default mailbox ID to send from
`description`	string	—	Sequence description

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why create_sequence is rated Medium

An AI agent can call create_sequence faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Starfield by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs create_sequence safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Starfield, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_sequence, this is the rule to start with:

create_sequence Rate-limited

create_sequence 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.

FAQ

Questions about create_sequence

What does the create_sequence tool do? +

Create a new multi-step email sequence. Define the name and optionally include initial steps. Steps specify delay, subject, and body template. Enterprise only. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Starfield MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

What parameters does create_sequence accept? +

How do I enforce a policy on create_sequence? +

Register the Starfield MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_sequence: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Starfield. Nothing to install.

What risk level is create_sequence? +

create_sequence is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit create_sequence? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_sequence 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.

How do I block create_sequence completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_sequence. 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.

What MCP server provides create_sequence? +

create_sequence is provided by the Starfield MCP server (@adrata/starfield-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
