Medium Risk

create_space

Creates a new Anytype space with the specified name. This tool allows you to set up a fresh workspace for organizing objects and collaborating with others. Use this tool when you need to establish a new organizational container for your Anytype content.

Part of the Anytype MCP Server MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

AI agents use create_space to create or modify resources in Anytype MCP Server. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call create_space repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Anytype MCP Server.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

What does the create_space tool do? +

Creates a new Anytype space with the specified name. This tool allows you to set up a fresh workspace for organizing objects and collaborating with others. Use this tool when you need to establish a new organizational container for your Anytype content.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Anytype MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on create_space? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for create_space. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Anytype MCP Server MCP server.

What risk level is create_space? +

create_space is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit create_space? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_space rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block create_space completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for create_space. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides create_space? +

create_space is provided by the Anytype MCP Server MCP server (Qwinty/anytype-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
