WHAT IT DOES

What createTag does on WordPress MCP Server

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why createTag needs a policy

The tool performs a CREATE operation on WordPress tags, which is a write operation that modifies the WordPress database by adding new taxonomy terms. While reversible (tags can be deleted), it does modify state. It is not destructive (deletion is handled separately by 'deleteTag'), not financial, and not execute-level code/command triggering.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'createTag' and description states it creates ('생성합니다') a new tag in WordPress. This is a reversible create operation on WordPress taxonomy data.
