What create_course does on GoHighLevel MCP Server
AI agents use create_course to create or update resources in GoHighLevel MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your GoHighLevel MCP Server environment.
Why create_course is rated Medium
This tool creates a new course resource, which is a reversible write operation. It modifies the system state by adding a new course but does not execute external code, delete data irreversibly, or move money. Severity is medium because course creation could affect business operations and customer-facing systems, but the impact is limited to a single resource creation that can be edited or deleted later.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_course' and description 'Create a new course' indicate data creation. The GoHighLevel platform context shows this is a CRM system managing business operations including courses, contacts, and sales.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs create_course safely

create_course 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 GoHighLevel MCP Server, apply this rule, and every create_course call is checked against it from then on.
