Restart a Tekton PipelineRun by creating a new PipelineRun with the same spec
Part of the Kubernetes server.
Free to start. No card required.
AI agents invoke tekton_pipelinerun_restart to trigger processes or run actions in Kubernetes. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.
tekton_pipelinerun_restart can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. PolicyLayer enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.
Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access tekton_pipelinerun_restart gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:
Other execute tools across the catalogue. The same approach applies to each: rate-limit and validate the arguments.
Restart a Tekton PipelineRun by creating a new PipelineRun with the same spec. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Kubernetes MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Kubernetes MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for tekton_pipelinerun_restart: 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 Kubernetes. Nothing to install.
tekton_pipelinerun_restart 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 tekton_pipelinerun_restart 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 tekton_pipelinerun_restart. 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.
tekton_pipelinerun_restart is provided by the Kubernetes MCP server (kubernetes-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
