AI agents use create_draft_tweet to create or update resources in X(Twitter) MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your X(Twitter) MCP Server environment.
This tool creates a new draft tweet, which is a reversible write operation. It does not publish or execute external actions—drafts remain unpublished and can be deleted via delete_draft. The severity is medium because misuse could result in unwanted draft content being created, but the impact is limited since drafts are not public until published.
From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly states 'create_draft_tweet' and description says 'Create a draft tweet'. The sibling tools include publish_draft, indicating this creates a reversible draft that can be modified or deleted before publication.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and X(Twitter) MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_draft_tweet:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"create_draft_tweet": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "create_draft_tweet_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}create_draft_tweet 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.
