What request_attention_spawn does on Freedom Mcp

AI agents invoke request_attention_spawn to trigger actions in Freedom Mcp. 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.

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
cwd string Working directory on the operator machine (e.g. /Users/…/GitHub/freedom-ai). Prefer absolute paths they already use.
goal string Yes One-line goal for the new session (1–500 chars).
host string Yes Which builder to open: grok (Terminal) | claude-desktop (Claude.app Code — preferred) | claude-code (Terminal CLI)
companyId string FreedomOS company id to act within (you must be a member). Required for company-scoped tools.
session_id string Optional stable session id; default auto-derived from host + project.
first_instruction string Optional first work sticky delivered after the new session announces (imperative).

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

Why request_attention_spawn is rated High

This tool's primary function is to execute external operations (launch local development environments, open terminals, execute directives) on the host machine. While it involves queueing (a data structure operation), its effect is spawning processes and executing code directives, making it Execute rather than Write. The mention of 'optional first directive' indicates the tool can receive code/commands to run.

From the tool's definition The tool 'spawns' new local coding sessions, opens Terminal, and can receive 'optional first directive' — this executes operations on the operator's machine, not merely writing data.

Questions about request_attention_spawn

What does the request_attention_spawn tool do? +

Request a NEW local coding session from voice/chat (tab spawn). Queues a sticky for the desk launcher on THIS operator's machine (host must run attention-launcher). Use when they say "start a Grok/Claude on …", "new build for …", "open a session for …". Does not open a cloud IDE — the local launcher opens Terminal + announces + optional first directive. [write-tier — first use may require a manager's approval; a from-now-on approval makes future calls seamless, a just-once approval re-asks next time.]. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Freedom Mcp MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

What parameters does request_attention_spawn accept? +

request_attention_spawn accepts 6 parameters: cwd, goal, host, companyId, session_id, first_instruction. Required: goal, host. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on request_attention_spawn? +

Register the Freedom MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for request_attention_spawn: 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 Freedom Mcp. Nothing to install.

What risk level is request_attention_spawn? +

request_attention_spawn is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit request_attention_spawn? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the request_attention_spawn 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.

How do I block request_attention_spawn completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for request_attention_spawn. 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.

What MCP server provides request_attention_spawn? +

request_attention_spawn is provided by the Freedom MCP server (https://twuluxmoognlwtmaoqgo.supabase.co/functions/v1/freedom-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
