What simulate_new_relation does on Max MCP Server
AI agents invoke simulate_new_relation 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 simulate_new_relation is rated High
This tool simulates a LinkedIn connection event and triggers downstream side effects (updating connection records and advancing campaign executions). While described as a test/simulation tool, it executes operations that modify system state and trigger external campaign workflows.
From the tool's definition The tool 'Fire a Unipile new_relation event' to 'test that the connection record is updated and any waiting campaign executions are advanced.' The verb 'Fire' indicates triggering an external operation/event, and 'campaign executions are advanced' shows side…
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs simulate_new_relation 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 simulate_new_relation, this is the rule to start with:
simulate_new_relation 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 simulate_new_relation call is checked against it from then on.
