Create a marketplace event

How to control create_marketplace_event ↓

AI agents use create_marketplace_event 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 marketplace event record, which is a reversible write operation. The blast radius is moderate—a misused tool could create unwanted marketplace events, but this does not rise to Execute (no code execution), Destructive (data remains), or Financial (no money movement).

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create_marketplace_event' with description 'Create a marketplace event'. The verb 'create' indicates data creation/modification. No deletion or financial transactions are implied.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_marketplace_event 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_marketplace_event:

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

create_marketplace_event 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.
