Why create_article needs a policy

This tool creates content reversibly—articles can be edited or deleted later—placing it in the Write category rather than Destructive. The severity is medium because while the blast radius is limited to content management (not financial or system-critical), creating malicious or spam articles at scale could harm the platform's reputation or SEO.

From the tool's definition The tool 'create_article' is described as creating a new article within a blog, which involves composing new content (title, HTML body). The action 'create' combined with content authorship indicates data modification rather than deletion or execution of code.

How to control create_article

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

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

create_article 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 Sapo — 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.
