What numbers_create_document does on Iconnect
AI agents use numbers_create_document 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 numbers_create_document is rated Medium
This tool creates a new document (write action), which is reversible (the created file can be deleted). It does not execute arbitrary code, delete existing data, or move money. The severity is medium rather than low because uncontrolled document creation could fill storage, disrupt workflows, or create confusion, though the immediate blast radius is limited to the creation of a single blank file.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Create a new blank Numbers spreadsheet' — the verb 'Create' indicates a write operation that generates new persistent data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs numbers_create_document safely

numbers_create_document 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 numbers_create_document call is checked against it from then on.
