WHAT IT DOES

What create_harm does on Codebeamer

AI agents use create_harm to create or update resources in Codebeamer, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Codebeamer environment.

RISK

Why create_harm is rated Medium

This tool creates a new item in a tracker, which is a reversible write operation. While 'harms' in the context of Requirements Management (RM) suggests safety-critical documentation, the tool itself performs data creation, not execution of harm or deletion.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_harm' and description 'Create a new item in a Codebeamer RM Harms List tracker' indicate data creation.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs create_harm safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Codebeamer, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_harm, this is the rule to start with:

create_harm Rate-limited

create_harm stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
