WHAT IT DOES

What parse_task_list does on Coach AI

AI agents invoke parse_task_list to trigger actions in Coach AI. 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.

RISK

Why parse_task_list is rated High

parse_task_list triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs parse_task_list safely

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

parse_task_list Rate-limited

parse_task_list stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

    }
  }

RATE-LIMIT THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Coach AI, apply this rule, and every parse_task_list call is checked against it from then on.
