AI agents call build_status to retrieve information from Resolve without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool only reads and returns the current progress/status of a build operation. It does not initiate, modify, or destroy anything, making it a straightforward Read operation with low risk.
From the tool's definition "Check progress of a running or completed timeline build" — purely retrieves status information with no side effects
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Check progress of a running or completed timeline build. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Resolve MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Resolve MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for build_status: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Resolve. Nothing to install.
build_status is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the build_status rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for build_status. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
build_status is provided by the Resolve MCP server (jenkinsm13/resolve-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
