default-true
Tool with object-style featureFlag ref and defaultValue: true for a non-existent flag

What default-true does on Frontmcp
AI agents call default-true to retrieve information from Frontmcp without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why default-true is rated Low
Feature flag checks are read-only operations that query configuration state without side effects. The tool simply returns the state of a feature flag (with a default value), making it a Read category tool. Severity is low because feature flag queries have minimal blast radius—they affect only visibility or behavior toggling of features, not data integrity or external operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'default-true' and description indicates it references a feature flag with a default value. This appears to be a flag check or configuration query operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs default-true safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Frontmcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For default-true, this is the rule to start with:
default-true is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Frontmcp, apply this rule, and every default-true call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about default-true
Tool with object-style featureFlag ref and defaultValue: true for a non-existent flag. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Frontmcp MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Front MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for default-true: 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 Frontmcp. Nothing to install.
default-true is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the default-true 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for default-true. 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.
default-true is provided by the Front MCP server (agentfront/frontmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
