WHAT IT DOES

What create_page does on Nocobase

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_page needs a policy

This tool creates new UI schema nodes in NocoBase, which is a Write operation—it modifies the application state by adding new page structures. The action is reversible (pages can be deleted), so it does not qualify as Destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_page' and description 'Create a new root-level UI schema node in NocoBase' indicate creation of new data structures that are reversible (pages can be deleted or modified).

create_page Rate-limited

create_page 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.
