AI agents use knowledge_draft_create to create or update resources in DevFlow MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your DevFlow MCP Server environment.
This tool creates or modifies data (knowledge drafts) in a reversible manner, fitting the Write category. Severity is high because an AI agent could flood the system with numerous low-quality or irrelevant drafts, polluting the knowledge base and creating operational overhead.
From the tool's definition Creates a new knowledge draft with automatic deduplication and merging of sourceFlowIds. The tool establishes persistent records (via draftType, title, projectId) that modify the knowledge management system state.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Create a new knowledge draft. Called by YOU (Claude) after classifying flows via knowledge_backfill_request, or standalone when you identify a flow worth documenting. Dedup is automatic — if a draft with the same (projectId, draftType, title) already exists in any status, the existing draft is returned and sourceFlowIds are merged. You can safely call this repeatedly. Rules: - draftType: one of adr | pattern | runbook | lessons_learned - title: deklarativ, max 60 chars, no prefix like. It is categorised as a Write tool in the DevFlow MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the DevFlow MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for knowledge_draft_create: 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 DevFlow MCP Server. Nothing to install.
knowledge_draft_create 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 knowledge_draft_create 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 knowledge_draft_create. 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.
knowledge_draft_create is provided by the DevFlow MCP Server MCP server (klausfreiberufler/devflow-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
