What launch_campaign does on Max MCP Server
AI agents invoke launch_campaign to trigger actions in Max MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why launch_campaign is rated High
This tool executes a complex external operation (campaign launch) that creates workflow executions affecting multiple prospects. While not permanently destructive or financial in nature, it has significant blast radius if misused by an AI agent—e.g., launching a campaign to wrong prospect list or with incorrect messaging.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'transitions draft → active and creates workflow executions for each prospect' — these are external operations with effects that depend on campaign configuration arguments.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs launch_campaign 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 launch_campaign, this is the rule to start with:
launch_campaign stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times 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 launch_campaign call is checked against it from then on.
