push_ios · Yaver MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What push_ios does on Yaver

`project_index`	integer	—

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why push_ios needs a policy

An AI agent can call push_ios faster than any human can review — one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Yaver by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Verdict

push_ios Rate-limited

push_ios 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.
