WHAT IT DOES

What add_issue_attachment does on Huly

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

RISK

Why add_issue_attachment is rated Medium

This is a Write operation because it creates a new attachment and modifies an issue's data structure reversibly. While attachments can later be removed, the action itself is not destructive—it adds content rather than deleting or overwriting. Severity is medium because an agent could upload malicious files or spam attachments, but the blast radius is limited to a single issue and can be undone.

From the tool's definition 'Add an attachment to a Huly issue' — the tool creates and associates a new attachment resource with an issue, modifying the issue's state by adding a file reference (filePath, fileUrl, or data).

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs add_issue_attachment safely

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

add_issue_attachment Rate-limited

add_issue_attachment 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.
