## Facts

- Tool: `adb_forward`
- Server: Ya Frida (`1shin-7/ya-frida-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/1shin-7-ya-frida-mcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/1shin-7/ya-frida-mcp
- Risk category: Execute (High risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "adb_forward",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why adb_forward is rated High

Port forwarding creates a network tunnel between local and remote TCP ports. This is an active network configuration operation that triggers an external operation (ADB port forward rule) whose effects depend on the arguments provided. It is not purely reading data, nor is it destructive/financial, but it does execute a network configuration change that could expose services or enable further exploitation.

From the tool's own definition: "Set up port forwarding (e.g. local='tcp:27042' remote='tcp:27042')"

## Use case

AI agents invoke adb_forward to trigger actions in Ya Frida. 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Ya Frida:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "adb_forward": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "adb_forward_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
