bulk_create_links · LinkForty MCP Server MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What bulk_create_links does on LinkForty MCP Server

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why bulk_create_links needs a policy

This tool creates new deep links in bulk (up to 100 per request), which is a reversible write operation. It modifies the workspace by adding new records but does not delete, execute arbitrary code, or move money. The bulk nature increases the blast radius compared to a single link creation, warranting medium severity.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create up to 100 deep links in a single request' and 'Returns the count and the array of created links.' The verb 'Create' and the ability to generate multiple links in bulk clearly indicate data creation.
