archive_product · Keycrm MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What archive_product does on Keycrm

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why archive_product needs a policy

Archiving is a state modification that changes product visibility/availability in the catalogue, but the description confirms it is reversible (products can be unarchived). This qualifies as Write rather than Destructive since the operation is not permanent and data remains recoverable.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Archive a product. Reversible — archived products can be unarchived at any time.' Archiving modifies product state but can be undone.

Verdict

archive_product Rate-limited

archive_product stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
