# create_item Create an item in Sanka. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `create_item`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/sankahq-sanka-mcp/create-item ## Facts - Tool: `create_item` - Server: Sanka MCP Server (`sankahq/sanka-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/sankahq-sanka-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/sankaHQ/sanka-mcp - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "create_item", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why create_item is rated Medium The tool creates data in Sanka, which is a reversible operation (items can typically be modified or deleted). It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money. The medium severity reflects that creating unintended items could clutter the system or trigger downstream processes depending on Sanka's automation rules, but the impact is generally containable and reversible. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'create_item' and description 'Create an item in Sanka' indicate data creation. The sibling tools include financial operations (activate_invoice, activate_order, approve_payroll_run) and destructive actions (archive_custom_object_record), but this…" ## Use case AI agents use create_item to create or update resources in Sanka MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context.
