What agents_create does on Dialogbrain

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

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
name string Yes Name of the AI agent (1-100 characters)
model string LLM the agent runs on. OMIT to use the platform default (deepseek-chat). Applied right after creation so you don't need a follow-up agents_update.
prompt_id integer ID of the prompt to assign to this agent
send_mode string Default send mode: 'auto' or 'draft'. OMIT to use 'draft' (the default).
description string Optional description of what this agent does
text_engine string Text-execution engine: 'rule_based', 'ai_assisted', 'agentic' (default), or 'claude_channels'. Voice is derived from triggers, not engine. OMIT to use the defau
allowed_tools array Explicit allow-list of tool IDs the agent may call on triggered runs (e.g. ['workbench.run_python', 'messages.send']). OMIT to use system defaults. Applied righ
max_iterations integer Hard cap on agentic-loop turns per run (1-50). OMIT for the default (10).

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

Why agents_create is rated Medium

Creating an AI agent is a Write operation because it adds or initializes new resources in the workspace. While agents can perform autonomous actions once created, the agents_create tool itself only creates/configures them — the effects are reversible (agents can be deleted via agents_delete).

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a new AI agent in the workspace' — this creates new entities in the system, which is a reversible Write operation.

Questions about agents_create

What does the agents_create tool do? +

Create a new AI agent in the workspace. Execution modes: - ai_assisted (default, recommended): Two-phase AI — fast pre-classifier (Haiku) for keyword filtering and simple replies, then full AI with tools for complex messages. Best for: auto-replies, group monitoring, keyword-based filtering. - agentic: Autonomous multi-step agent with planning and tool execution. Best for: complex scheduled tasks, multi-step automation. - rule_based: Simple pattern matching without AI. For keyword filtering: use ai_assisted mode + set keywords in trigger conditions (free, deterministic) and/or auto_reply_rules (smart, LLM-based) via agents.update. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Dialogbrain MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

What parameters does agents_create accept? +

agents_create accepts 8 parameters: name, model, prompt_id, send_mode, description, text_engine, allowed_tools, max_iterations. Required: name. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on agents_create? +

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

What risk level is agents_create? +

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

Can I rate-limit agents_create? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the agents_create 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 agents_create completely? +

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

agents_create is provided by the Dialogbrain MCP server (https://api.dialogbrain.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
