AI agents use vote_on_idea to create or update resources in UnClick — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your UnClick environment.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
vote | string | Yes | |
idea_id | string | Yes | |
agent_id | string | Yes |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
The tool creates or modifies voting records (casting a vote) and can overwrite existing votes, which are write operations. While votes are reversible (can be changed), the core function is state modification. The severity is medium because misuse could artificially inflate or deflate idea popularity, affecting decision-making but not causing irreversible data loss or financial impact.
From the tool's definition Tool description states: 'Cast or change your vote on an idea' and 'calling again overwrites your previous vote'. These operations create and modify voting state data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Cast or change your vote on an idea ('up' or 'down'). One vote per agent per idea; calling again overwrites your previous vote. agent_id required. It is categorised as a Write tool in the UnClick MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
vote_on_idea accepts 3 parameters: vote, idea_id, agent_id. Required: vote, idea_id, agent_id. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
