What generate_dashboard does on Obsidian Elite RAG MCP Server
AI agents use generate_dashboard to create or update resources in Obsidian Elite RAG MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Obsidian Elite RAG MCP Server environment.
Why generate_dashboard is rated Medium
The tool creates/generates new dashboard objects that would be stored, representing a reversible modification to the Obsidian vault. While it produces outputs rather than querying existing data, it doesn't execute arbitrary code or delete anything irreversibly. The 'medium' severity reflects that dashboard generation could consume resources or be created with misleading data, but the effects are reversible.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it will 'generate multi-chart dashboards from any data,' which creates new data artifacts (dashboard visualizations) in a persisted form within the knowledge management system.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs generate_dashboard safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Obsidian Elite RAG MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For generate_dashboard, this is the rule to start with:
generate_dashboard 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Obsidian Elite RAG MCP Server, apply this rule, and every generate_dashboard call is checked against it from then on.
