WHAT IT DOES

What gala_launchpad_create_api_key does on Gala

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

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`role`	string	Yes	API key role determining permissions: - MODERATOR: Manage comments, chat messages, ban/unban users - TECHNICAL_PRODUCER: Simulcast targets, stream key, stop/sta
`expiresAt`	string	—	Optional expiration date in ISO 8601 format (e.g., "2025-12-31T23:59:59Z"). If not provided, never expires.
`tokenNames`	array	—	Specific tokens to delegate access to (ignored if delegateAllTokens is true). Token names are case-insensitive.
`description`	string	—	User's description/label for this API key (max 255 characters)
`delegateAllTokens`	boolean	—	If true, key has access to ALL tokens owned by the user (current and future). If false, only tokens in tokenNames are accessible.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why gala_launchpad_create_api_key is rated Medium

An AI agent can call gala_launchpad_create_api_key faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Gala by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs gala_launchpad_create_api_key safely

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

gala_launchpad_create_api_key Rate-limited

gala_launchpad_create_api_key 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.
