WHAT IT DOES

What create_wifi_qrcode does on QR Forge MCP server

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_wifi_qrcode needs a policy

This tool creates (writes) a new Wi-Fi QR code containing embedded network credentials. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, or move money. However, severity is medium rather than low because Wi-Fi credentials embedded in QR codes could facilitate unauthorized network access if the QR code is generated for a network the agent should not have access to, or if the code is shared unintentionally.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_wifi_qrcode' and description 'Create a Wi-Fi QR code' indicate data creation. The description specifies it 'encodes credentials directly,' meaning it creates and stores a new QR code artifact.
