tascan_create_event

Create a new event (task list) within a project. Supports team_mode (shared completions) and multi_instance (each worker gets isolated copy — great for surveys, onboarding, info collection). team_mode and multi_instance cannot both be true.

Part of the TaScan server.

tascan_create_event can modify TaScan data, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents use tascan_create_event to create or modify resources in TaScan. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call tascan_create_event repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach TaScan.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so tascan_create_event only ever does what you allow.

What does the tascan_create_event tool do? +

Create a new event (task list) within a project. Supports team_mode (shared completions) and multi_instance (each worker gets isolated copy — great for surveys, onboarding, info collection). team_mode and multi_instance cannot both be true.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the TaScan MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on tascan_create_event? +

Register the TaScan MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for tascan_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 TaScan. Nothing to install.

What risk level is tascan_create_event? +

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

Can I rate-limit tascan_create_event? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the tascan_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.

How do I block tascan_create_event completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for tascan_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.

What MCP server provides tascan_create_event? +

tascan_create_event is provided by the TaScan MCP server (tascan-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every TaScan tool call.
