WHAT IT DOES

What ida_bridge does on Jshookmcp

AI agents invoke ida_bridge to trigger actions in Jshookmcp. 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 ida_bridge is rated High

Executes arbitrary commands through IDA Pro plugin bridge, enabling code analysis and execution.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs ida_bridge safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Jshookmcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For ida_bridge, this is the rule to start with:

ida_bridge Rate-limited

ida_bridge 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 Jshookmcp, apply this rule, and every ida_bridge call is checked against it from then on.

What risk level is ida_bridge? +
