What resolve_comment_thread does on Postman
AI agents use resolve_comment_thread to create or update resources in Postman, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Postman environment.
Why resolve_comment_thread is rated Medium
Resolving a comment modifies existing data (comment status/state) reversibly—the action can be undone by unresolving the comment. This is a state change operation typical of Write category. It is not Destructive because comments remain accessible and the action is reversible.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'resolve_comment_thread' and description 'Resolves a comment and any associated replies' indicate modification of comment state/metadata.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs resolve_comment_thread safely

resolve_comment_thread 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Postman, apply this rule, and every resolve_comment_thread call is checked against it from then on.
