CreateAHOWorkflowVersion
AI agents use CreateAHOWorkflowVersion to create or update resources in Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server environment.
The tool name clearly indicates it creates (Write action) a workflow version. This is a data modification that can be reversed or updated. Without a description, confidence is reduced but the action pattern (Create*) is a strong signal for Write category. Severity is medium because creating workflow versions could affect automation or business processes, but the impact depends on what that workflow controls.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'CreateAHOWorkflowVersion' indicates creation of a new workflow version, a reversible data modification operation. The description is empty, limiting confidence.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access CreateAHOWorkflowVersion gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for CreateAHOWorkflowVersion:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"CreateAHOWorkflowVersion": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "createahoworkflowversion_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} CreateAHOWorkflowVersion 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.

CreateAHOWorkflowVersion. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for CreateAHOWorkflowVersion: 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 Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server. Nothing to install.
CreateAHOWorkflowVersion 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 CreateAHOWorkflowVersion 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 CreateAHOWorkflowVersion. 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.
CreateAHOWorkflowVersion is provided by the Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.bedrock-kb-retrieval-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
