toggle_webhook · Gobox MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What toggle_webhook does on Gobox

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why toggle_webhook needs a policy

Toggling a webhook's enabled state is a reversible modification of configuration data. It can be re-enabled or re-disabled at any time, making it a Write operation. Misuse could disrupt event notifications but is not irreversible.

toggle_webhook Rate-limited

toggle_webhook 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.
