Medium Risk

create_mixin_type

Create a new mixin type. Check existing mixins first with get_mixins_and_relation_groups to avoid duplicates. Mixins are reusable property sets applicable to any node.

Part of the CoreModels server.

create_mixin_type can modify CoreModels data, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents use create_mixin_type to create or modify resources in CoreModels. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call create_mixin_type repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach CoreModels.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_mixin_type gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so create_mixin_type only ever does what you allow.

What does the create_mixin_type tool do? +

Create a new mixin type. Check existing mixins first with get_mixins_and_relation_groups to avoid duplicates. Mixins are reusable property sets applicable to any node.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the CoreModels 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_mixin_type? +

Register the CoreModels MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_mixin_type: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches CoreModels. Nothing to install.

What risk level is create_mixin_type? +

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

Can I rate-limit create_mixin_type? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_mixin_type 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_mixin_type completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_mixin_type. 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_mixin_type? +

create_mixin_type is provided by the CoreModels MCP server (https://go.coremodels.io/mcp-admin). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every CoreModels tool call.
