What sonar_run_scan does on MCP Framework Personal
AI agents invoke sonar_run_scan to trigger actions in MCP Framework Personal. 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.
Why sonar_run_scan is rated High
sonar_run_scan triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs sonar_run_scan safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and MCP Framework Personal, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For sonar_run_scan, this is the rule to start with:
sonar_run_scan 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect MCP Framework Personal, apply this rule, and every sonar_run_scan call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about sonar_run_scan
Ejecuta. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the MCP Framework Personal MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the MCP Framework Personal MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for sonar_run_scan: 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 MCP Framework Personal. Nothing to install.
sonar_run_scan 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 sonar_run_scan 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 sonar_run_scan. 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.
sonar_run_scan is provided by the MCP Framework Personal MCP server (inggerman/mcps). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
