## Why cdp_start_campaign is rated High

Starting a campaign is an Execute action—it triggers an external operation whose effects depend on campaign configuration and audience targeting. While not destructive or financial in isolation, it commits resources and affects customer communications, warranting high severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'cdp_start_campaign' indicates it triggers campaign execution. The description is empty, but context from sibling tools (cache operations, workflow management) and the server's stated purpose of 'managing CDP tenants, campaigns, workflows' confirms…"

## Use case

AI agents invoke cdp_start_campaign to trigger actions in CDP MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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