WHAT IT DOES

What rotate_webhook_secret does on Kula Ai

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why rotate_webhook_secret needs a policy

Rotating a webhook secret modifies the webhook's signing credentials. While it invalidates the old secret (potentially disrupting integrations relying on it), it is a reversible configuration change (a new secret is set, not a permanent deletion). The blast radius is medium because misuse could break webhook signature validation for integrations until they update to the new secret.

From the tool's definition 'Rotate the signing secret for a webhook' — generates a new secret, replacing the old one
