Creates a new workspace role
AI agents use create_workspace_role to create or update resources in Keyshade — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Keyshade environment.
The tool creates new workspace roles, which modifies the authorization/access control structure of the secrets management platform. While reversible (roles can be deleted), this is a Write action rather than Execute because it doesn't run arbitrary code or trigger dynamic external operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'create' and description states 'Creates a new workspace role'. This is a reversible data modification action that establishes new access control configuration.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_workspace_role gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Keyshade, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_workspace_role:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"create_workspace_role": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "create_workspace_role_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}create_workspace_role 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.
Free to start. No card required.
Creates a new workspace role. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Keyshade MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Keyshade MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_workspace_role: 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 Keyshade. Nothing to install.
create_workspace_role is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_workspace_role 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_workspace_role. 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.
create_workspace_role is provided by the Keyshade MCP server (keyshade-xyz/keyshade-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Keyshade, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
