WHAT IT DOES

What 1ly_create_key does on 1ly

AI agents use 1ly_create_key to create or update resources in 1ly, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your 1ly environment.

RISK

Why 1ly_create_key is rated Medium

Creating an API key is a write operation that generates new authentication credentials. While reversible (keys can be deleted or rotated), a misused API key could enable unauthorized access to store operations including financial transactions (token launches, trading on Bags.fm).

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a new API key for the authenticated agent store', which is a create operation that adds a new credential/secret to the system.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs 1ly_create_key safely

1ly_create_key Rate-limited

1ly_create_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.
