Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `send_notification`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/send-notification ## Facts - Tool: `send_notification` - Server: FlowDot MCP Server (`flowdot-llc/mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server.md - Homepage: https://github.com/flowdot-llc/mcp-server - Risk category: Execute (High risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "send_notification", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why send_notification is rated High This tool triggers an external operation — dispatching a message through third-party communication platforms. It is not a simple write to internal data; it actively sends content to external services (Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal), making it Execute. Misuse could result in spam, harassment, or social engineering via the user's trusted communication channels, warranting medium severity. From the tool's own definition: "Send a notification message to the user via their configured COMMS channels (Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal)" ## Use case AI agents invoke send_notification to trigger actions in FlowDot 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. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches FlowDot MCP Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "send_notification": { "limits": [ { "counter": "send_notification_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 10, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on FlowDot MCP Server (206) - `browser_act` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/browser-act.md - `cancel_execution` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/cancel-execution.md - `delete_agent_character` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-agent-character.md - `delete_app` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-app.md - `delete_app_file` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-app-file.md - `delete_connection` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-connection.md - `delete_custom_node` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-custom-node.md - `delete_goal` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-goal.md - `delete_goal_milestone` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-goal-milestone.md - `delete_goal_task` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-goal-task.md - `delete_image` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-image.md - `delete_input_preset` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-input-preset.md - `delete_knowledge_category` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-knowledge-category.md - `delete_knowledge_document` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-knowledge-document.md - `delete_node` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-node.md - `delete_recipe` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-recipe.md - `delete_recipe_step` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-recipe-step.md - `delete_recipe_store` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-recipe-store.md - `delete_workflow` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-workflow.md - `email_delete` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/email-delete.md - `mcp__flowdot__delete_agent_toolkit` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/mcp--flowdot--delete-agent-toolkit.md - `mcp__flowdot__delete_toolkit_tool` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/mcp--flowdot--delete-toolkit-tool.md - `mcp__flowdot__uninstall_toolkit` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/mcp--flowdot--uninstall-toolkit.md - `panic_clear` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/panic-clear.md - `revoke_kb_access` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/revoke-kb-access.md - `unlink_property_kb_source` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/unlink-property-kb-source.md - `browser_launch` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/browser-launch.md - `browser_navigate` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/browser-navigate.md - `browser_sequence` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/browser-sequence.md - `browser_wait_for` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/browser-wait-for.md - …and 176 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
