WHAT IT DOES

What add_contact does on Automagik Tools

AI agents use add_contact to create or update resources in Automagik Tools, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Automagik Tools environment.

RISK

Why add_contact is rated Medium

This tool creates new contact records in a local database, which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute code, delete data irreversibly, move money, or trigger external side effects. The severity is low because adding contact information has minimal blast radius and can be easily undone by deletion.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Add contact to local database' with arguments for phone_number, name, nickname, notes and returns confirmation. The verb 'Add' and phrase 'to local database' indicate data creation/modification.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs add_contact safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Automagik Tools, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For add_contact, this is the rule to start with:

add_contact Rate-limited

add_contact 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.
