WHAT IT DOES

What disable_trigger does on Max MCP Server

AI agents use disable_trigger 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.

RISK

Why disable_trigger is rated Medium

This tool modifies data (disabling a trigger by setting its active property to false) but does not delete or destroy it irreversibly. The change can be undone by re-enabling the trigger. It affects workflow automation (stopping re-polling) but has no financial or destructive consequences.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'sets active=false' and 'Returns the updated {data: IntentTrigger}', indicating a reversible state modification operation.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs disable_trigger safely

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

disable_trigger Rate-limited

disable_trigger 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.
