RISK

Why email_send is rated Medium

Sending email is a write operation that modifies state in an external system (Gmail/IMAP). It's not read-only (does not merely retrieve data), not destructive (email can typically be deleted or the action partially mitigated), and not financial.

From the tool's definition Tool name and description: 'email_send' sends an email via Gmail/IMAP. Sending email creates new data (a message) in a remote system and is reversible (recipient can delete, sender can attempt to retract).

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs email_send safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and UnClick, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For email_send, this is the rule to start with:

email_send Rate-limited

email_send 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.
