WHAT IT DOES

What update_task_completion does on Ghl

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

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`taskId`	string	Yes	Task ID
`completed`	boolean	Yes	Completion status
`contactId`	string	Yes	Contact ID

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why update_task_completion is rated Medium

This tool modifies existing task records by changing their completion status. It is a Write operation because it updates data reversibly—task completion status can be toggled or changed back. The severity is medium because misuse could mark tasks as complete when they are not, potentially disrupting workflow management, but the impact is typically reversible and scoped to task records.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'update_task_completion' and description states 'Update task completion status', indicating modification of task data.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs update_task_completion safely

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

update_task_completion Rate-limited

update_task_completion 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.
