# update_bot Update an existing bot Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `update_bot`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/instantkom-mcp-server/update-bot ## Facts - Tool: `update_bot` - Server: instantKOM MCP Server (`instantkom/mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/instantkom-mcp-server.md - Homepage: https://github.com/instantKOM/mcp-server - 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": "update_bot", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why update_bot is rated Medium This tool modifies bot configuration or properties but does not delete data or execute arbitrary commands—it is a reversible write operation. While it could have side effects if the bot is actively used (e.g., changes to bot behavior affecting messages), the operation itself is not destructive, not financial, and not arbitrary code execution. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'update_bot' and description states 'Update an existing bot', indicating modification of an existing resource within the instantKOM messenger platform." ## Use case AI agents use update_bot 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. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**.
