# run_closed_loop Track a compile-lint-test-debug closed loop iteration. Record the result of each step. Never present changes without a full green loop. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `run_closed_loop`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/run-closed-loop ## Facts - Tool: `run_closed_loop` - Server: Nodebench (`nodebench-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench.md - Install: `npx -y nodebench-mcp` - Homepage: https://github.com/HomenShum/nodebench-ai - Risk category: Execute (High risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "run_closed_loop", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why run_closed_loop is rated High This tool triggers external operations—compilation, linting, testing, and debugging—which modify build artifacts, execution environment state, and test results. These are irreversible side effects that alter the development environment. While not destructive (data deletion) or financial, the execution of multiple pipeline steps with unpredictable outcomes (especially debugging) classifies this as Execute. From the tool's own definition: "'Track a compile-lint-test-debug closed loop iteration' and 'Record the result of each step' indicate the tool executes a sequence of development operations (compilation, linting, testing, debugging) whose effects depend on the codebase state and arguments…" ## Use case AI agents invoke run_closed_loop to trigger actions in Nodebench. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Nodebench: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "run_closed_loop": { "limits": [ { "counter": "run_closed_loop_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 10, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on Nodebench (823) - `abandon_cycle` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/abandon-cycle.md - `archiveDocument` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/archivedocument.md - `cleanup_stale_runs` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/cleanup-stale-runs.md - `deeptrace_revoke_passport` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/deeptrace-revoke-passport.md - `delete_learning` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/delete-learning.md - `delete_sandbox_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/delete-sandbox-policy.md - `deleteAgentMemory` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/deleteagentmemory.md - `removeDocumentFromFolder` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/removedocumentfromfolder.md - `share_revoke_packet_link` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/share-revoke-packet-link.md - `unload_toolset` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/unload-toolset.md - `benchmark_models` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/benchmark-models.md - `bootstrap_parallel_agents` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/bootstrap-parallel-agents.md - `build_banking_packet` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/build-banking-packet.md - `build_company_profile_starter` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/build-company-profile-starter.md - `build_founder_operating_model` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/build-founder-operating-model.md - `build_research_digest` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/build-research-digest.md - `build_shared_context_subscription` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/build-shared-context-subscription.md - `build_shared_context_subscription_manifest` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/build-shared-context-subscription-manifest.md - `build_submission_export` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/build-submission-export.md - `build_temporal_graph` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/build-temporal-graph.md - `burst_capture` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/burst-capture.md - `call_driver_tool` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/call-driver-tool.md - `call_llm` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/call-llm.md - `call_openclaw_skill` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/call-openclaw-skill.md - `call_webmcp_tool` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/call-webmcp-tool.md - `capture_surface_stats` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/capture-surface-stats.md - `capture_ui_screenshot` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/capture-ui-screenshot.md - `compile_decision_packet` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/compile-decision-packet.md - `compile_scenarios` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/compile-scenarios.md - `compile_tension_model` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench/compile-tension-model.md - …and 793 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-homenshum-nodebench.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
