What linear_archive_cycle does on Allmcp
AI agents use linear_archive_cycle to create or update resources in Allmcp, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Allmcp environment.
Why linear_archive_cycle is rated Medium
Archiving is a state change that modifies data but is explicitly marked as reversible, placing it in the Write category rather than Destructive. The impact is medium severity since archiving could affect workflow visibility and access to project cycles, but the reversibility mitigates risk of permanent data loss.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Archive a cycle (reversible)', indicating a modification operation that can be undone. The term 'reversible' confirms this is not destructive.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs linear_archive_cycle safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Allmcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For linear_archive_cycle, this is the rule to start with:
linear_archive_cycle 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 Allmcp, apply this rule, and every linear_archive_cycle call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about linear_archive_cycle
Archive a cycle (reversible). It is categorised as a Write tool in the Allmcp MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the All MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for linear_archive_cycle: 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 Allmcp. Nothing to install.
linear_archive_cycle is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the linear_archive_cycle 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 linear_archive_cycle. 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.
linear_archive_cycle is provided by the All MCP server (Perception-Dynamics-Inc/allmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
