WHAT IT DOES

What create_offer does on Invoice Agent MCP Server

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_offer needs a policy

The tool creates new offer documents (write operation). Severity is medium because offers are business-critical documents that establish contractual obligations and could be issued incorrectly if misused by an AI agent, but the operation is reversible (offers can be corrected/replaced).

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_offer' combined with server purpose (invoice creation via natural language) and sibling tools (create_invoice, get_invoice_status, list_invoices) indicates this creates or generates offer documents, which are reversible data modifications.
