THE RISK

What can go wrong

Even read-only tools carry cost. An agent in a retry loop can make thousands of API calls per minute, exhausting rate limits and running up bills.

POLICY

How to control GHAS MCP server (GitHub Advanced Security)

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and GHAS MCP server (GitHub Advanced Security), and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. These are the rules we recommend:

Cap read operations

{
  "list_code_scanning_alerts": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "list_code_scanning_alerts_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

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