WHAT IT DOES

What create_component does on Huly

AI agents use create_component to create or update resources in Huly, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Huly environment.

RISK

Why create_component is rated Medium

Creating a component is a reversible Write operation. It adds a new organizational structure to the project management system but does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, or move money. Severity is medium because creating unwanted components could clutter the project structure, but the impact is limited in scope and reversible through deletion.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_component' and description explicitly states 'Create a new component in a Huly project' — this creates new data (a component resource) that can be listed, modified, or deleted later.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs create_component safely

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

create_component Rate-limited

create_component 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.

LIMIT THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Huly, apply this rule, and every create_component call is checked against it from then on.
