Retrigger failed webhook events (Private Beta feature).
AI agents invoke smartlead_retrigger_failed_events to trigger actions in Smartlead Simplified MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
This tool re-executes previously failed webhook events, triggering external operations. It is an Execute-category action since it causes side effects by firing webhook calls to external systems. The blast radius is medium — it could cause duplicate processing or unintended downstream effects if misused, but it does not directly delete data or move money.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access smartlead_retrigger_failed_events gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Smartlead Simplified MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for smartlead_retrigger_failed_events:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"smartlead_retrigger_failed_events": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "smartlead_retrigger_failed_events_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 10,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} smartlead_retrigger_failed_events stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
