Set the subscription tier (pro, pro-plus, ultra)
AI agents use set_subscription_tier to create or update resources in Cursor Pro Limits MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Cursor Pro Limits MCP Server environment.
This tool creates or modifies data reversibly—changing subscription tiers is a write operation that affects billing and service entitlements. It does not irreversibly delete data (not Destructive) or move money directly (not Financial, though it may trigger billing changes downstream).
From the tool's definition Tool name 'set_subscription_tier' and description indicate it modifies subscription configuration by setting tier levels (pro, pro-plus, ultra). This is a state-changing operation that alters user account settings.

set_subscription_tier is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the set_subscription_tier rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
