WHAT IT DOES

What create_board does on Huly

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

RISK

Why create_board is rated Medium

This tool creates new board objects in Huly, which is a Write operation (creates/modifies data reversibly). It is not Destructive because creation is reversible (boards can be deleted). Severity is medium because creating boards could clutter the workspace or inadvertently expose organizational structure, but the blast radius is limited compared to execute or destructive operations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_board' and description 'Create a Huly board' explicitly indicates creation of new data. The note about idempotency ('Idempotent by exact active board name') and project type parameters show this modifies board state in a reversible manner.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs create_board safely

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

create_board Rate-limited

create_board 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.

FAQ

Questions about create_board

What does the create_board tool do? +

Create a Huly board. Idempotent by exact active board name; pass projectType by _id or exact name only when the default board project type is ambiguous. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Huly 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_board? +

Register the Huly MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_board: 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 Huly. Nothing to install.

What risk level is create_board? +

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

Can I rate-limit create_board? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_board 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_board completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_board. 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_board? +

create_board is provided by the Huly MCP server (@firfi/huly-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
