project.create · Freedcamp MCP Server MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What project.create does on Freedcamp MCP Server

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why project.create needs a policy

This tool creates a new project resource within Freedcamp, which is reversible (projects can be deleted). It modifies the project system state by adding data, making it a Write operation. Severity is medium because while project creation is non-destructive and reversible, it could clutter the system or consume resources if abused at scale by an AI agent without proper authorization context.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a new project' with parameters for project_name, description, color, view type, and group. The word 'Create' and the action of adding a new project entity to the system indicates data creation.

Verdict

project.create Rate-limited

project.create 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.
