WHAT IT DOES

What set_category does on Elementify MCP

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

RISK

Why set_category is rated Medium

This tool modifies template organization/metadata by replacing category assignments. It is a Write operation because it creates or modifies data reversibly. Severity is medium because misuse could disorganize template libraries or hide templates through incorrect categorization, affecting discoverability and workflow, but does not result in data loss or financial impact.

From the tool's definition Tool performs 'set (replace) the categories on an Elementor template' — a modification operation that changes template metadata. The action is reversible (categories can be set again to different values) and does not delete or destroy data.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs set_category safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Elementify MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For set_category, this is the rule to start with:

set_category Rate-limited

set_category 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.
