finch_push_image · Amazon MQ MCP Server MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What finch_push_image does on Amazon MQ MCP Server

AI agents invoke finch_push_image to trigger actions in Amazon MQ MCP Server. 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 IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why finch_push_image needs a policy

The name suggests pushing a container image (similar to 'docker push'), which is a Write/Execute operation that uploads and potentially overwrites a container image in a registry. However, the description is empty, so confidence is low. Pushing an image can have significant side effects (overwriting existing images, triggering deployments), so severity is rated high.
