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

Medium Risk

Why duplicate_space needs a policy

Duplicating a space creates a new copy of an existing space, including all its content, components, and settings. This is a Write operation (creates new data) rather than Destructive (nothing is deleted). However, severity is high because it replicates an entire space which could include large amounts of content, assets, and configurations, and misuse could lead to unintended space proliferation or quota exhaustion.

How to control duplicate_space

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Storyblok MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for duplicate_space:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "duplicate_space": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "duplicate_space_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

duplicate_space 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.

  1. Create a free account and register Storyblok MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
