WHAT IT DOES

What start_social_oauth does on GoHighLevel MCP Server

AI agents invoke start_social_oauth to trigger actions in GoHighLevel MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why start_social_oauth needs a policy

This tool executes an OAuth handshake, which is a multi-step external operation that cannot be undone by simply calling another tool. While not destructive, it modifies authentication state and potentially grants permissions to third-party systems. An AI agent could maliciously initiate OAuth for accounts it does not control, impersonate users, or establish unauthorized integrations.

From the tool's definition 'Start OAuth process for social media platform' — initiates an external authentication flow that triggers side effects (authorization, token generation, and potential account linking) on external social media platforms.
