cross-repo-analysis
AI agents call cross-repo-analysis to retrieve information from CodeAnalysis MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Based on naming and server context focused on 'analysis,' this tool likely retrieves and examines code properties across multiple repositories without modifying data. Sibling tools (analyze-*) support this classification as Read operations. Empty description reduces confidence to 0.6, but no evidence suggests data modification, execution of arbitrary code, or destructive operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'cross-repo-analysis' suggests querying or analyzing code across repositories. Description is empty, limiting certainty.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
cross-repo-analysis. It is categorised as a Read tool in the CodeAnalysis MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the CodeAnalysis MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for cross-repo-analysis: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches CodeAnalysis MCP Server. Nothing to install.
cross-repo-analysis is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the cross-repo-analysis rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for cross-repo-analysis. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
cross-repo-analysis is provided by the CodeAnalysis MCP Server MCP server (0xjcf/mcp_codeanalysis). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
cross-repo-analysis is one line of CodeAnalysis MCP Server's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
