  "params": {

## Why createGoogleDoc is rated Medium

This tool creates a new Google Doc, which is a reversible write operation. While it modifies the user's Google Drive by adding a new document, the action can be undone (the document can be deleted). It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money, so it falls into the Write category.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'createGoogleDoc' and description 'Create a new Google Doc' indicate creation of a new document, which is a write operation that creates data reversibly."

Risk signals: Accepts raw HTML/template content (content)

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Google Drive:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "createGoogleDoc": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "creategoogledoc_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
