What create_stack does on Komodo MCP Server

AI agents use create_stack to create or update resources in Komodo MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Komodo MCP Server environment.

Why create_stack needs a policy

This tool creates a new stack, which is a reversible modification to Komodo infrastructure. It does not delete data (Destructive), execute arbitrary code (Execute), move money (Financial), or merely read data (Read). Stack creation is a Write operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_stack' and description 'Crea un nuevo stack en Komodo' (Creates a new stack in Komodo) indicate data creation.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_stack gives an agent:

How to control create_stack

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

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

create_stack 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 Komodo MCP Server — 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.
