This tool creates a new person record in the Huly project management system. This is a Write operation because it irreversibly adds new data to the system (creating a person entity is not easily reversible in most systems, though not technically 'Destructive' since deletion/purging would be required to undo it).
From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_person' and description 'Create a new person in Huly' indicate data creation. The return of 'created person ID' confirms successful object instantiation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs create_person 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_person, this is the rule to start with:
create_person 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Huly, apply this rule, and every create_person call is checked against it from then on.
