Attempt to reconnect email accounts that have failed authentication.
AI agents invoke smartlead_reconnect_failed_email_accounts to trigger actions in SmartLead 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.
This tool triggers an external operation — attempting to re-authenticate and reconnect email accounts. It doesn't merely read data, nor does it create/modify data in a standard write sense; it actively initiates a reconnection process against external email services. The blast radius is medium since a failed or misused reconnection attempt could disrupt email account states or trigger authentication lockouts.

{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"smartlead_reconnect_failed_email_accounts": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "smartlead_reconnect_failed_email_accounts_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 10,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
