What plan_poll_creation does on GuildControl MCP
AI agents use plan_poll_creation to create or update resources in GuildControl MCP, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your GuildControl MCP environment.
Why plan_poll_creation is rated Medium
Creates a poll reversibly; plan preparation precedes actual poll creation, mitigating risk but still modifying server state.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs plan_poll_creation safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and GuildControl MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For plan_poll_creation, this is the rule to start with:
plan_poll_creation 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 GuildControl MCP, apply this rule, and every plan_poll_creation call is checked against it from then on.

It is categorised as a Write tool in the GuildControl MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

plan_poll_creation 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 plan_poll_creation 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 plan_poll_creation. 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.
