create_wiki_page

Create a new page in a wiki. If the page already exists at the specified path, it will be updated.

How to control create_wiki_page ↓

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

Medium Risk

This tool creates or modifies wiki pages, which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute code, delete data irreversibly, move money, or trigger external operations with unpredictable effects.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a new page in a wiki. If the page already exists at the specified path, it will be updated.' The verbs 'create' and 'updated' indicate reversible modifications to wiki content.

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

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_wiki_page": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_wiki_page_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

create_wiki_page 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.

  1. Create a free account and register Azure DevOps MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
