WHAT IT DOES

What status does on GitHub

AI agents call status as a supporting operation in GitHub workflows.

RISK

Why status is rated Low

This appears to be a parameter descriptor rather than a standalone tool. The description indicates it is an optional string field used as input to another method ('create_project_status_update'). It does not describe an independent action with side effects. Confidence is low because the description is uninformative as a tool definition.

From the tool's definition 'The status of the project. Used for \'create_project_status_update\' method. (string, optional)'

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs status 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 status, this is the rule to start with:

status Rate-limited

status gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "status": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "status_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 60,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
