What convert_form does on 1c Formsserver
AI agents use convert_form to create or update resources in 1c Formsserver, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your 1c Formsserver environment.
Why convert_form is rated Medium
Converting forms between formats is a reversible data transformation operation—forms are modified or regenerated in alternate formats but can be reconverted or reverted. This fits the Write category (creates or modifies data reversibly) rather than Read (which would be pure querying) or Destructive (which requires irreversible deletion/loss).
From the tool's definition Tool name 'convert_form' indicates data transformation/modification. Server description states the MCP server handles 'converting' forms between three formats (Configurator, Managed, and EDT).
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs convert_form safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and 1c Formsserver, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For convert_form, this is the rule to start with:
convert_form 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 1c Formsserver, apply this rule, and every convert_form call is checked against it from then on.
