AI agents use register_ssh_key to create or modify resources in Bitrise. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call register_ssh_key repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Bitrise.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access register_ssh_key gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so register_ssh_key only ever does what you allow.

What does the register_ssh_key tool do? +

Add an SSH-key to a specific app.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Bitrise MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on register_ssh_key? +

Register the Bitrise MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for register_ssh_key: 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 Bitrise. Nothing to install.

What risk level is register_ssh_key? +

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

Can I rate-limit register_ssh_key? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the register_ssh_key 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 register_ssh_key completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for register_ssh_key. 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 register_ssh_key? +

register_ssh_key is provided by the Bitrise MCP server (https://mcp.bitrise.io/). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Bitrise tool call.
