Why create_event needs a policy

Creating calendar events is a reversible write operation that adds or modifies data in a calendar system. It does not delete data (so not Destructive), execute arbitrary code (so not Execute), or move money (so not Financial).

From the tool's definition Tool named 'create_event' with capability to create calendar events (implied from server's calendar management functionality and sibling tools like 'get_events').

How to control create_event

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MCP Personal Assistant Agent, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_event:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_event": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_event_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

create_event 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.
