What pr-ready does on Build
AI agents use pr-ready to create or update resources in Build, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Build environment.
Why pr-ready is rated Medium
This tool modifies the state of a pull request (ready for review vs. draft), which is a reversible write operation on a code repository. It does not delete data or execute arbitrary code. Misuse could prematurely expose unfinished code for review, but it is reversible.
From the tool's definition Marks a pull request as ready for review (or converts it back to draft when undo=true)
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs pr-ready safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Build, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For pr-ready, this is the rule to start with:
pr-ready 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Build, apply this rule, and every pr-ready call is checked against it from then on.

It is categorised as a Write tool in the Build MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Build MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for pr-ready: 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 Build. Nothing to install.
pr-ready is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the pr-ready 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 pr-ready. 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.
pr-ready is provided by the Build MCP server (Dave-London/Pare). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
