# create_provider Create a workspace provider backed by an org integration. The provider inherits the integration key, but its limits and expiration are enforced independently for that workspace. Returns the new provider id and slug. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `create_provider`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/create-provider ## Facts - Tool: `create_provider` - Server: Portkey Admin (`codeswhat/portkey-admin-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/CodesWhat/portkey-admin-mcp - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "create_provider", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why create_provider is rated Medium This tool creates new provider configurations in a workspace, which modifies system state in a persistent, but reversible manner (providers can typically be deleted). It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, move money, or retrieve data without side effects. From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Create a workspace provider backed by an org integration' — the word 'Create' indicates data creation. The tool generates new provider resources with id and slug, establishing new configurations that persist in the system." ## Use case AI agents use create_provider to create or update resources in Portkey Admin, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Portkey Admin environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Portkey Admin: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "create_provider": { "limits": [ { "counter": "create_provider_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on Portkey Admin (155) - `cancel_log_export` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/cancel-log-export.md - `delete_api_key` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-api-key.md - `delete_collection` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-collection.md - `delete_config` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-config.md - `delete_guardrail` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-guardrail.md - `delete_integration` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-integration.md - `delete_integration_model` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-integration-model.md - `delete_mcp_integration` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-mcp-integration.md - `delete_mcp_server` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-mcp-server.md - `delete_prompt` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-prompt.md - `delete_prompt_label` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-prompt-label.md - `delete_prompt_partial` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-prompt-partial.md - `delete_provider` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-provider.md - `delete_rate_limit` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-rate-limit.md - `delete_secret_reference` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-secret-reference.md - `delete_usage_limit` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-usage-limit.md - `delete_user` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-user.md - `delete_user_invite` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-user-invite.md - `delete_virtual_key` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-virtual-key.md - `delete_workspace` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/delete-workspace.md - `remove_workspace_member` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/remove-workspace-member.md - `run_prompt_completion` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/run-prompt-completion.md - `start_log_export` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/start-log-export.md - `test_mcp_server` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/test-mcp-server.md - `download_log_export` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/download-log-export.md - `get_analytics_group_metadata` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/get-analytics-group-metadata.md - `get_analytics_group_models` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/get-analytics-group-models.md - `get_analytics_group_users` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/get-analytics-group-users.md - `get_api_key` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/get-api-key.md - `get_cache_hit_latency` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp/get-cache-hit-latency.md - …and 125 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
