## Facts

- Tool: `create_object_storage_key`
- Server: Linode MCP Server (`takashito/linode-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/takashito-linode-mcp-server.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/takashito/linode-mcp-server
- Risk category: Write (Medium risk)

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "create_object_storage_key",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why create_object_storage_key is rated Medium

This tool creates new API credentials for Object Storage access. While creation is technically reversible (keys can be revoked), the tool generates secrets that permanently authorize access to storage until explicitly deleted. Misuse allows an AI agent to create persistent backdoor credentials, establish unauthorized access to object storage, or elevate privileges.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'create_object_storage_key' and description 'Create a new Object Storage key' indicate irreversible creation of credentials that grant access to cloud storage resources."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Linode MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_object_storage_key": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_object_storage_key_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
