Why revoke_readonly_invite is rated Medium
This tool only updates an internal bookkeeping record to mark an invite as revoked. It does not actually revoke access (the token remains valid), does not delete data irreversibly, does not execute code, and has no financial impact. It is a reversible write operation (a status update) with limited real-world effect.
From the tool's definition 'Marks the issuer-side record as revoked at the current time' and 'issuer-side BOOKKEEPING — it does NOT recall the token already in the recipient's hands'

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