WHAT IT DOES

What maasy_trigger_workflow does on Maasy — AI Marketing Copilot

AI agents invoke maasy_trigger_workflow to trigger actions in Maasy — AI Marketing Copilot. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why maasy_trigger_workflow needs a policy

The tool invokes an external system operation (workflow/automation/sequence execution) rather than merely reading data (Read) or making simple reversible modifications (Write). While individual workflows may vary in impact, triggering automation sequences in CRM and marketing systems carries significant blast radius if misused—could spam customers, corrupt CRM data, or execute unintended business actions.

From the tool's definition Tool performs 'Trigger a maasy workflow manually' — workflows, automations, and sequences are external operations whose execution effects depend on what specific workflow is being triggered.
