Why knowledge_base_create is rated Medium
An AI agent can call knowledge_base_create faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Ghl by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs knowledge_base_create safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ghl, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For knowledge_base_create, this is the rule to start with:
knowledge_base_create 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 Ghl, apply this rule, and every knowledge_base_create call is checked against it from then on.

Register the Ghl MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for knowledge_base_create: 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 Ghl. Nothing to install.
knowledge_base_create 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 knowledge_base_create 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 knowledge_base_create. 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.
knowledge_base_create is provided by the Ghl MCP server (@aiwerk/mcp-server-ghl). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
