Add an entry to the activity log
AI agents use whmcs_log_activity to create or update resources in Whmcs — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Whmcs environment.
This tool creates new audit log entries. It modifies data (the activity log) but does so reversibly — log entries can be deleted or corrected. It has no destructive effects, does not execute code, and does not move money.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'whmcs_log_activity' with description 'Add an entry to the activity log' — 'Add' indicates creation of a new log entry, which is a reversible write operation.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access whmcs_log_activity gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Whmcs, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for whmcs_log_activity:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"whmcs_log_activity": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "whmcs_log_activity_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}whmcs_log_activity 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.
Free to start. No card required.
Add an entry to the activity log. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Whmcs MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Whmcs MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for whmcs_log_activity: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Whmcs. Nothing to install.
whmcs_log_activity is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the whmcs_log_activity rule in your PolicyLayer 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for whmcs_log_activity. 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.
whmcs_log_activity is provided by the Whmcs MCP server (scarecr0w12/whmcs-mcp-tool). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Whmcs, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
