WHAT IT DOES

What report_finding does on Intellirecon Console

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

RISK

Why report_finding is rated Medium

The tool creates/records a new security finding entry in a reporting system. This is a write operation (creates data) that is reversible (findings can typically be deleted or edited). The description is slightly truncated but clearly indicates persisting a finding to some operator-facing interface. No execution, destruction, or financial implications are evident.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs report_finding safely

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

report_finding Rate-limited

report_finding 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.

How do I enforce a policy on report_finding? +

Register the Intellirecon Console MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for report_finding: 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 Intellirecon Console. Nothing to install.

What risk level is report_finding? +

report_finding is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit report_finding? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the report_finding 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.

How do I block report_finding completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for report_finding. 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.

What MCP server provides report_finding? +

report_finding is provided by the Intellirecon Console MCP server (dokotela021/intellirecon-console). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
