How to control update_course_post ↓

AI agents use update_course_post 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.

Medium Risk

This tool modifies course content in the GoHighLevel platform. As a Write operation, it creates or modifies data reversibly. The severity is medium because misuse could corrupt educational content or mislead students, but the impact is limited to course materials and reversible through subsequent edits.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'update_course_post' and description 'Update a course post/lesson' indicate modification of existing data. The action is reversible (content can be edited again or reverted) and does not permanently delete or destroy records.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access update_course_post gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and GoHighLevel MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for update_course_post:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "update_course_post": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "update_course_post_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

update_course_post 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.

  1. Create a free account and register GoHighLevel MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
