Part of the Clerk MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents use CreateInvitation to create or modify resources in Clerk. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call CreateInvitation repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Clerk.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Creates a new invitation for the given email address and sends the invitation email. Keep in mind that you cannot create an invitation if there is already one for the given email address. Also, trying to create an invitation for an email address that already exists in your application will result to an error.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Clerk MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for CreateInvitation. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Clerk MCP server.
CreateInvitation 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 CreateInvitation rule in your Intercept 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 Intercept policy for CreateInvitation. 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.
CreateInvitation is provided by the Clerk MCP server (@clerk/clerk-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
