What create_prospect does on Max MCP Server
AI agents use create_prospect to create or update resources in Max MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Max MCP Server environment.
Why create_prospect is rated Medium
The tool creates new prospect records in a sales agent workspace, which is a data creation/modification operation. This is a Write category action: it produces side effects (new prospect records added to the system) but is reversible (prospects can be archived or deleted). The deduplication by email is standard Create behavior.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a single prospect' — a create operation that modifies data. Returns existing row if email already exists, indicating reversible record creation/update behavior without deletion or financial impact.

The rule that runs create_prospect safely

create_prospect 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 Max MCP Server, apply this rule, and every create_prospect call is checked against it from then on.
