create_org · Run402 MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What create_org does on Run402

AI agents use create_org to create or update resources in Run402 — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Run402 environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_org needs a policy

The create_org tool creates a new organization with the caller as owner. This is a Write operation as it creates a new data structure reversibly—organizations can be deleted or archived (evidenced by sibling tools like admin_archive_project and admin_reactivate_project).

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create an empty organization' and uses POST endpoint, which creates a new entity (organization) reversibly.

Verdict

create_org Rate-limited

create_org 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.
