What aroflo_query_zone does on AroFlo MCP
AI agents invoke aroflo_query_zone to trigger actions in AroFlo MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why aroflo_query_zone is rated High
While named 'query', this tool executes arbitrary queries against AroFlo zones with WHERE/ORDER/JOIN clauses. The 'arbitrary' nature means it could be used to access any data zone, and depending on the underlying API, may not be limited to read-only operations. The ability to run arbitrary structured queries with joins across zones represents significant potential for data exfiltration or unintended side effects.
