MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

High Risk

The most dangerous Clockify MCP Server tools

Execute · Medium stop_timer While the tool doesn't permanently destroy data or create financial transactions, it executes a command that changes system state—stopping an active timer. Write · Medium start_timer Starting a timer creates a new active time entry in Clockify. Write · Medium add_time_entry This tool creates or modifies time tracking records, which are business-critical data that could affect payroll, billing, and project accounting.

3 of Clockify MCP Server's 9 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control Clockify MCP Server

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Clockify MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. These are the rules we recommend:

Rate limit write operations

{
  "add_time_entry": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "add_time_entry_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations

{
  "find_overtime_users": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "find_overtime_users_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
