WHAT IT DOES

What create_site does on Webcake Storefront

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

RISK

Why create_site is rated Medium

Although the tool performs both creation and deletion, the primary documented purpose is creating a new storefront site (Write category). The deletion is of auto-generated sample data that is immediately removed post-creation as part of the initialization workflow, not a primary destructive action on user data. However, this tool modifies account state irreversibly by creating a new site entity.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it "Create[s] a brand-new storefront site" and "DELETES that seed right after creating the site". The tool performs creation (Write) and deletion (Destructive) operations.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs create_site safely

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

create_site Rate-limited

create_site 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.

      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_site_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

LIMIT THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Webcake Storefront, apply this rule, and every create_site call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about create_site

What does the create_site tool do? +

Create a brand-new storefront site for the current account, then (by default) switch to it and return an EMPTY, CLEAN site (no sample products/categories) ready for element composition. The backend auto-seeds off-theme sample products + categories (and a sample blog); by default this tool DELETES that seed right after creating the site (keep the non-deletable default. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Webcake Storefront MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on create_site? +

Register the Webcake Storefront MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_site: 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 Webcake Storefront. Nothing to install.

What risk level is create_site? +

create_site is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit create_site? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_site 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.

How do I block create_site completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_site. 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.

What MCP server provides create_site? +

create_site is provided by the Webcake Storefront MCP server (webcake-storefront-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
