AI agents use acc_create_issue to create or modify resources in ACC MCP. 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 acc_create_issue 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 ACC MCP.

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

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access acc_create_issue gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

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

What does the acc_create_issue tool do? +

Create a new ACC issue (field observation, coordination clash, safety, quality, etc.) in the target project via the APS Construction Issues API. When to use: The user wants to log a new issue — e.g. 'open a high-priority issue about the leaking valve on level 3' or a downstream agent detected a defect during a model review and needs to record it for the project team. When NOT to use: Do not use to modify an existing issue (use acc_update_issue) and do not use for RFIs (use acc_create_rfi). APS scopes: data:read data:write account:read. Rate limits: ACC Issues API limited to ~100 req/min per app; APS default ~50 req/min per endpoint — batch creations with backoff. Errors: 401 (APS token expired — refresh); 403 (user lacks 'Create Issues' permission on the project or scope insufficient — surface to user); 404 (project_id not found — verify the 'b.' prefix and that the project belongs to a hub the app can see via acc_list_projects); 422 (validation — required field like title/description missing or priority enum invalid); 429 (rate limit — retry after 60s); 5xx (ACC upstream — retry with jitter, do not double-create). Side effects: Creates a persistent issue record visible to all project members. NOT idempotent — a retry on a 5xx may create duplicates; dedupe by title before retrying.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the ACC MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on acc_create_issue? +

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

What risk level is acc_create_issue? +

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

Can I rate-limit acc_create_issue? +

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

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

acc_create_issue is provided by the ACC MCP server (https://acc-mcp.itmartin24.workers.dev/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every ACC MCP tool call.
