What owner_type does on GitHub
AI agents call owner_type as a supporting operation in GitHub workflows.
Why owner_type is rated Low
This appears to be a parameter descriptor rather than an executable tool. It describes an optional string input for specifying owner type, not an action that reads, writes, executes, or destroys data. The description is not informative about any standalone tool behavior, so confidence is low.
From the tool's definition Tool name: 'owner_type', description: 'Owner type (user or org). If not provided, will be automatically detected. (string, optional)'
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs owner_type safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and GitHub, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For owner_type, this is the rule to start with:
owner_type gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect GitHub, apply this rule, and every owner_type call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about owner_type
Owner type (user or org). If not provided, will be automatically detected. (string, optional). It is categorised as a Other tool in the GitHub MCP Server, which means it performs auxiliary operations.
Register the GitHub MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for owner_type: 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 GitHub. Nothing to install.
owner_type is a Other tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the owner_type 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 owner_type. 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.
owner_type is provided by the GitHub MCP server (oci:ghcr.io/aifity/omnigit-mcp:0.5.0). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
