run_and_report can trigger actions in Keploy, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents invoke run_and_report to trigger processes or run actions in Keploy. 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.

run_and_report 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 run_and_report 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 run_and_report only ever does what you allow.

What does the run_and_report tool do? +

Run test suites and return results with failures and coverage. !! DO NOT USE for local-app "tests for my changes" flows !! This tool sends the run to the SaaS backend which REJECTS private/localhost URLs ("IPv6 address is private / reserved"). It only works when base_url points at a PUBLIC, non-loopback address (a staging/prod deployment). For local-app testing, use record_sandbox_test / replay_sandbox_test instead — they drive the keploy local agent which happily records against http://localhost.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Keploy MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on run_and_report? +

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

What risk level is run_and_report? +

run_and_report is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit run_and_report? +

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

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

run_and_report is provided by the Keploy MCP server (https://api.keploy.io/client/v1/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Keploy tool call.
