AI agents use create_form to create or update resources in Libreoffice — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Libreoffice environment.
Creating forms in LibreOffice is a reversible write operation that modifies document structure and content. The tool adds interactive elements to documents but does not execute external code, delete data, or move funds. Empty description reduces confidence slightly, but the 'create_' prefix and sibling tools (create_chart, create_table, create_pivot_table) all suggest write-class operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_form' in a LibreOffice MCP server context indicates creation of form objects within documents. Description is empty, limiting direct evidence.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_form gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Libreoffice, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_form:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"create_form": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "create_form_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}create_form 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.

create_form. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Libreoffice MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Libreoffice MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_form: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Libreoffice. Nothing to install.
create_form is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_form rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_form. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
create_form is provided by the Libreoffice MCP server (waterpistolai/libreoffice-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Libreoffice, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
