WHAT IT DOES

What create_schema does on StarTree MCP Server for Apache Pinot

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

THE RISK

Medium Risk

Why create_schema needs a policy

This tool creates a new schema, which is a reversible data modification operation. It does not delete or destroy data (not Destructive), does not execute arbitrary code (not Execute), and does not involve financial transactions (not Financial). Schema creation can be undone by deletion, and the impact is scoped to schema management rather than data deletion.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create_schema' and description states 'Create a new schema'. The verb 'create' indicates it generates new data structures within the Apache Pinot system.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_schema gives an agent:

POLICY

How to control create_schema

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and StarTree MCP Server for Apache Pinot, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_schema:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_schema": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_schema_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

create_schema 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.
