What teammate_push_remote does on Claude Flow
AI agents invoke teammate_push_remote to trigger actions in Claude Flow. 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 teammate_push_remote is rated High
This tool initiates an external operation by pushing team state to a remote session. It is not a simple read, nor a local data write — it triggers connectivity and state transfer to an external platform (Claude.ai), which constitutes executing an external action.
From the tool's definition 'Push team to Claude.ai remote session' — triggers an external operation that connects/pushes agent configurations or team state to a remote session on Claude.ai

The rule that runs teammate_push_remote safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Claude Flow, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For teammate_push_remote, this is the rule to start with:
teammate_push_remote 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Claude Flow, apply this rule, and every teammate_push_remote call is checked against it from then on.
