Admin/system-level operation
Part of the SmartBear MCP MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents use contract-testing_admin_create_user to create or modify resources in SmartBear MCP. 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 contract-testing_admin_create_user 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 SmartBear MCP.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Agents calling write-class tools like contract-testing_admin_create_user have been implicated in these attack patterns. Read the full case and prevention policy for each:
Other tools in the Write risk category across the catalogue. The same policy patterns (rate-limit, validate) apply to each.
Create a new user account (admin). **Parameters:** - email (string) *required*: Email address of the new user - name (string) *required*: Display name of the new user - firstName (string): First name - lastName (string): Last name - externalIdpId (string): External identity provider ID (for SAML/SSO) - externalIdpUsername (string): External IdP username (for SAML/SSO). It is categorised as a Write tool in the SmartBear MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for contract-testing_admin_create_user. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the SmartBear MCP MCP server.
contract-testing_admin_create_user 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 contract-testing_admin_create_user 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.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for contract-testing_admin_create_user. 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.
contract-testing_admin_create_user is provided by the SmartBear MCP MCP server (@smartbear/mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
