What validate_sql_query_and_cel does on ComplianceCow MCP Server
AI agents invoke validate_sql_query_and_cel to trigger actions in ComplianceCow 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 validate_sql_query_and_cel is rated High
The tool name strongly implies execution of SQL queries and CEL expressions. SQL execution can have significant side effects depending on the query (reads, writes, or destructive operations). CEL expression evaluation can also trigger complex logic. However, the description is empty, which reduces confidence. The word 'validate' could mean it only checks syntax without executing, which would lower severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'sql_query' and 'cel', suggesting execution of SQL queries and CEL (Common Expression Language) expressions
