# create_zone Create a zone via WS config/zone/create (zone helper integration). Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `create_zone`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/fistacho-ha-nexus-agent/create-zone ## Facts - Tool: `create_zone` - Server: Ha Nexus Agent (`fistacho/ha-nexus-agent`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/fistacho-ha-nexus-agent.md - Homepage: https://github.com/Fistacho/ha-nexus-agent - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "create_zone", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why create_zone is rated Medium Creating a zone in Home Assistant is a reversible write operation that adds new helper configuration data. It does not delete or destroy data (ruling out Destructive), does not execute arbitrary code or commands (not Execute), and does not involve financial transactions (not Financial). From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Create a zone' - a direct creation action that modifies Home Assistant configuration by adding a new zone helper entity. The `config/zone/create` endpoint is explicitly invoked to add configuration data." ## Use case AI agents use create_zone to create or update resources in Ha Nexus Agent, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Ha Nexus Agent environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**.
