What commit_feature does on FeatureBoard
AI agents invoke commit_feature to trigger actions in FeatureBoard. 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 commit_feature is rated High
This tool executes git operations against a repository. A commit is reversible locally but a push sends changes to a remote and can affect shared state. Since it spans both commit and push, it qualifies as Execute (triggering external operations). Misuse could push unintended changes to a shared remote repository, causing disruption to collaborators or CI/CD pipelines.
From the tool's definition 'commit (and optionally push) the current changes in the project' — triggers git operations (commit and push) which are external version control actions
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs commit_feature safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and FeatureBoard, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For commit_feature, this is the rule to start with:
commit_feature 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 FeatureBoard, apply this rule, and every commit_feature call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about commit_feature
If git integration is enabled for the project, commit (and optionally push) the current changes in the project. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the FeatureBoard MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the FeatureBoard MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for commit_feature: 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 FeatureBoard. Nothing to install.
commit_feature 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 commit_feature 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 commit_feature. 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.
commit_feature is provided by the FeatureBoard MCP server (https://github.com/valentil/featureboard-mcp/releases/download/v0.7/featureboard.plugin). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
