THE RISK

Medium Risk

Why create-relation needs a policy

This tool creates a new relation/relationship record in GoHighLevel, which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move financial resources. The severity is medium because creating relations could impact business workflows, contacts, and opportunity management if misused by an agent, but the action is reversible.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create-relation' with description stating 'Create Relation' indicates data creation. The documentation link references ClickUp integration within GoHighLevel's business management tools.

POLICY

How to control create-relation

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and GoHighLevel MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create-relation:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create-relation": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create-relation_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

create-relation 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.

Create a free account and register GoHighLevel MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
