What customize_order does on Mcp Otle

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why customize_order needs a policy

This tool modifies an order with special requests, which is a Write operation (creating/updating order data). Severity is medium because it affects an order in a simulated context, though 'Results may vary' suggests unpredictable outcomes. Confidence is moderate because the description is vague and doesn't detail exactly what data is written or how reversible the changes are.

From the tool's definition 'Make special requests for your order' — modifies an existing order by adding special instructions or customizations
