WHAT IT DOES

What plan_decompose_mission does on Nodebench

AI agents use plan_decompose_mission to create or update resources in Nodebench, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Nodebench environment.

RISK

Why plan_decompose_mission is rated Medium

This tool creates or organizes new planning artifacts (decomposed subtasks and their routing logic) as a reversible write operation. It does not execute external commands, delete data irreversibly, or handle financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'plan_decompose_mission' and description 'Decompose a mission into subtasks with verifiability routing' indicates creation/modification of plan data structures (subtasks, routing rules).

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs plan_decompose_mission safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Nodebench, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For plan_decompose_mission, this is the rule to start with:

plan_decompose_mission Rate-limited

plan_decompose_mission 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.

How do I enforce a policy on plan_decompose_mission? +

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

What risk level is plan_decompose_mission? +

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

Can I rate-limit plan_decompose_mission? +

How do I block plan_decompose_mission completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for plan_decompose_mission. 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.
