## Why create_task_type is rated Medium

This tool creates and modifies project metadata (task type definitions and workflow configuration) reversibly. It does not irreversibly delete data (not Destructive), does not execute arbitrary code (not Execute), and does not move money (not Financial).

From the tool's own definition: "create_task_type adds/creates a new task type to a project, as evidenced by 'Add a Huly issue/task type' and 'Creates' implicit in the verb 'create_task_type'."

## Use case

AI agents use create_task_type 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Huly:
