WHAT IT DOES

What stream_group_set_id does on AWS

AI agents use stream_group_set_id to create or update resources in AWS, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your AWS environment.

RISK

Why stream_group_set_id is rated Medium

This tool modifies consumer group state (last delivered ID) reversibly — the ID can be changed again to correct or revert changes. It is not destructive (no deletion/purge), not financial, and not Execute (does not run arbitrary code or trigger external processes).

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Set consumer group's last delivered ID' — a modification operation that updates state. Parameters include 'id: ID to set as last delivered', confirming intentional state mutation.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs stream_group_set_id safely

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

stream_group_set_id Rate-limited

stream_group_set_id 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.
