make_clean · Yaver MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What make_clean does on Yaver

AI agents invoke make_clean 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.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why make_clean needs a policy

make_clean triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once — it starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

Verdict

make_clean Rate-limited

make_clean stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
