What rename_workflow_execution does on Automagik Tools

AI agents use rename_workflow_execution 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.

Medium Risk

Why rename_workflow_execution needs a policy

The tool updates workflow execution session names, which is reversible metadata modification. It does not delete data (not Destructive), execute arbitrary code (not Execute), move money (not Financial), or read-only retrieve data (not Read). The blast radius is minimal—renaming sessions affects only identification/organization without impacting data integrity or system behavior.

From the tool's definition Tool performs 'Give a custom name' operation which modifies metadata of a workflow execution session. This is a write operation that creates or updates naming information.

How to control rename_workflow_execution

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Automagik Tools, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for rename_workflow_execution:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "rename_workflow_execution": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "rename_workflow_execution_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

rename_workflow_execution 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.

  1. Create a free account and register Automagik Tools — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
