WHAT IT DOES

What store_credential does on Automagik Tools

AI agents use store_credential 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 store_credential is rated Medium

This tool writes/stores credential data (secrets, API keys, passwords) in an encrypted form. While it is a write operation rather than destructive or financial, misuse carries high severity because improperly stored or overwritten credentials could expose sensitive authentication material or lock out legitimate users.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs store_credential 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 store_credential, this is the rule to start with:

store_credential Rate-limited

store_credential 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.
