WHAT IT DOES

What execute_promql_range_query does on AWS Labs Amazon Q Business anonymous mode MCP Server

AI agents invoke execute_promql_range_query to trigger actions in AWS Labs Amazon Q Business anonymous mode 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.

THE RISK

Why execute_promql_range_query needs a policy

This tool executes queries (PromQL range queries) against monitoring/metrics systems. While PromQL itself is read-only by design, it is still classified as Execute rather than Read because: (1) the tool name explicitly uses 'execute', indicating active operation triggering; (2) the empty description leaves uncertainty about potential side effects or wrapper behavior; (3) in the context of an AWS Labs MCP server…

From the tool's definition Tool name 'execute_promql_range_query' indicates execution of Prometheus Query Language (PromQL) range queries against a metrics database.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access execute_promql_range_query gives an agent:

POLICY

How to control execute_promql_range_query

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and AWS Labs Amazon Q Business anonymous mode MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for execute_promql_range_query:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "execute_promql_range_query": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "execute_promql_range_query_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

execute_promql_range_query 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.
