What kb_create_space does on Munin
AI agents use kb_create_space to create or update resources in Munin, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Munin environment.
Why kb_create_space is rated Medium
This tool creates a new knowledge-base space resource, which is a reversible write operation. It modifies the organization's knowledge base structure by adding a new space, but the action can be undone by deleting the space. The severity is medium because miscreating spaces could clutter the knowledge base or consume resources, but the impact is scoped to organizational documentation and is reversible.
From the tool's definition 'Create a new knowledge-base space' indicates persistent creation of a new organizational resource (knowledge base space) that can be modified or deleted later but is not immediately destructive.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs kb_create_space safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Munin, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For kb_create_space, this is the rule to start with:
kb_create_space 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 Munin, apply this rule, and every kb_create_space call is checked against it from then on.
