AI agents invoke run_find_delegation to trigger actions in Pentester-MCP. 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.
The 'run_' prefix combined with the server's stated purpose of enabling autonomous execution of pentesting tools strongly suggests this tool executes an external operation or command. The empty description lowers confidence slightly, but the server context and naming convention are clear indicators of execution capability.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'run_find_delegation' with 'run_' prefix indicates execution; server is explicitly a penetration testing platform enabling autonomous execution of 'over 200 open-source penetration testing tools' including 'reconnaissance, web exploitation, and…
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access run_find_delegation gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Pentester-MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for run_find_delegation:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"run_find_delegation": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "run_find_delegation_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 10,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} run_find_delegation stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

run_find_delegation. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Pentester-MCP MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Pentester- MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for run_find_delegation: 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 Pentester-MCP. Nothing to install.
run_find_delegation is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the run_find_delegation 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 run_find_delegation. 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.
run_find_delegation is provided by the Pentester- MCP server (halilkirazkaya/pentester-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Pentester-MCP, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
