WHAT IT DOES

What create_flow_edge does on instantKOM MCP Server

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

RISK

Why create_flow_edge is rated Medium

This tool adds or creates a new relationship between flow nodes. This is a data modification operation that is reversible (edges can be removed or modified later). While it could be part of a larger workflow system, the tool itself only creates structural connections within a flow definition and does not execute external operations, delete data, or involve financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Tool creates a connection between nodes in a flow, which is a reversible modification operation (not a read, not destructive, not execution of external code, not financial). The action 'create' modifies flow structure by adding a new edge relationship.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs create_flow_edge safely

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

create_flow_edge Rate-limited

create_flow_edge 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.

What does the create_flow_edge tool do? +

Create a connection between two nodes in a flow. Both nodes must exist in the same flow. It is categorised as a Write tool in the instantKOM MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on create_flow_edge? +

What risk level is create_flow_edge? +

create_flow_edge is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit create_flow_edge? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_flow_edge rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block create_flow_edge completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_flow_edge. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides create_flow_edge? +

create_flow_edge is provided by the instantKOM MCP Server MCP server (instantkom/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
