What create_event does on Iconnect
AI agents use create_event to create or update resources in Iconnect, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Iconnect environment.
Why create_event is rated Medium
This tool creates new data (calendar events) reversibly; users can delete or modify created events. It does not destroy data, execute arbitrary code, or move money. The 'medium' severity reflects that while calendar spam or noise could disrupt a user's schedule, the blast radius is limited to calendar entries and lacks destructive or financial consequences.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a new calendar event' — a clear write operation that creates new data in the calendar system. Restrictions on recurring events and attendees show intentional limitations on automation scope.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs create_event safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Iconnect, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_event, this is the rule to start with:
create_event 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Iconnect, apply this rule, and every create_event call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about create_event
Create a new calendar event. Recurring events cannot be created via automation. Attendees cannot be added programmatically. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Iconnect MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Iconnect MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_event: 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 Iconnect. Nothing to install.
create_event is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_event 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_event. 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.
create_event is provided by the Iconnect MCP server (iconnect-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
