WHAT IT DOES

What databricks_stop_app does on Databricks MCP Server

AI agents invoke databricks_stop_app to trigger actions in Databricks MCP Server. 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.

RISK

Why databricks_stop_app is rated High

Stopping an app is an Execute action—it triggers an operation whose effects depend on which app is targeted. While not destructive (reversible by restart) or write-based (doesn't modify data), it actively halts a service/process. In a Databricks multi-tenant environment, misuse could disrupt other users' workflows.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'databricks_stop_app' indicates stopping/terminating an application instance, and context of Databricks tools with operations like 'cancel_run', 'cancel_statement' suggests it triggers an external operation. Description is empty, reducing certainty.

databricks_stop_app Rate-limited

databricks_stop_app 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.
