AI agents invoke automation.create to trigger processes or run actions in MisarMail. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.

automation.create can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. PolicyLayer enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.

Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

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

What does the automation.create tool do? +

Create a new email automation workflow with trigger configuration.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the MisarMail MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on automation.create? +

Register the MisarMail MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for automation.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 MisarMail. Nothing to install.

What risk level is automation.create? +

automation.create is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit automation.create? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the automation.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 automation.create completely? +

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

automation.create is provided by the MisarMail MCP server (https://mail.misar.io/api/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every MisarMail tool call.
