What reindex_wiki does on Agent Store
AI agents invoke reindex_wiki to trigger actions in Agent Store. 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.
Why reindex_wiki is rated High
This tool rebuilds a full-text search index from scratch, which is an operation that executes a rebuild process. While it doesn't delete user data, it does perform a potentially long-running, resource-intensive operation that overwrites the existing index entirely. It's most accurately Execute since it triggers an external/internal operation (index rebuild) whose effects depend on the current state of the data.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs reindex_wiki safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Agent Store, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For reindex_wiki, this is the rule to start with:
reindex_wiki 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Agent Store, apply this rule, and every reindex_wiki call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about reindex_wiki
Rebuild the FTS5 search index from scratch. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Agent Store MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Agent Store MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for reindex_wiki: 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 Agent Store. Nothing to install.
reindex_wiki is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the reindex_wiki 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 reindex_wiki. 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.
reindex_wiki is provided by the Agent Store MCP server (chrisluersen/agent-store). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
