RISK

Why complete_task is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data (task state and metadata) but does not delete, destroy, or irreversibly change information. The modifications are reversible—tasks can be reopened or status changed again. It falls under Write rather than Execute because it modifies specific task fields rather than executing arbitrary code or external operations.

From the tool's definition The tool description states it 'Mark a task as completed or reopen it. Sets STATUS, PERCENT-COMPLETE, and COMPLETED date atomically.' This modifies task data (status, completion percentage, completion date) in a reversible manner.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs complete_task safely

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

complete_task Rate-limited

complete_task 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.
