What custom_query_sales_persons does on Marketo MCP Server
AI agents invoke custom_query_sales_persons to trigger actions in Marketo 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 custom_query_sales_persons is rated High
The tool executes direct REST API calls to Marketo without a specific described operation, making it potentially capable of reads, writes, or destructive actions depending on arguments. The custom/direct nature means no guardrails are apparent.
From the tool's definition 'Calls the Marketo REST API directly' — arbitrary API execution with unclear scope; '[CUSTOM]' prefix indicates non-standard, potentially unconstrained operation
