WHAT IT DOES

What create_endpoint does on GASSAPI MCP Server

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY
