- Install: `npx -y yaver-cli`
- Homepage: https://github.com/kivanccakmak/yaver.io
- Risk category: Execute (High risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 3
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `tag` | string | no | Image tag |
| `directory` | string | no |  |
| `dockerfile` | string | no |  |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "docker_build",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why docker_build is rated High

This tool triggers external operations (Docker build process) whose effects depend on the Dockerfile contents provided as arguments. While not immediately destructive to existing data, it executes untrusted code during the build process and can have significant side effects (resource consumption, network access, creation of container artifacts).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'docker_build' and description states 'Build a Docker image from Dockerfile.' Building a Docker image executes arbitrary code defined in the Dockerfile, including RUN commands that can execute shell commands, install packages, and modify the…"

Risk signals: Accepts file system path (directory)

## Use case

AI agents invoke docker_build to trigger actions in Yaver. 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 Yaver:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "docker_build": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "docker_build_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
