Create an access group project

How to control create_access_group_project ↓

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

Medium Risk

This tool creates a new access group project, which is a reversible write operation that modifies access control configuration. It doesn't execute arbitrary code, destroy data, or move money, but it does create a security-relevant structure that could expand or restrict access.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'create' and description states 'Create an access group project' — this creates a new access control entity that modifies project configuration.

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

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

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

create_access_group_project 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 Vercel 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.
