What operation-log does on Jj

AI agents call operation-log to retrieve information from Jj without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why operation-log needs a policy

This tool retrieves and displays historical operation logs from a Jujutsu repository. It performs no writes, modifications, or executions — purely a read/query operation with no side effects.

Questions about operation-log

What does the operation-log tool do? +

Show the operation log of a Jujutsu (jj) repository. Lists all operations performed on the repository in chronological order. Parameters: limit (Optional limit on number of operations to show), repoPath (Optional path to repo root or working directory), cwd (Optional working directory to run the command in). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Jj MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on operation-log? +

Register the Jj MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for operation-log: 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 Jj. Nothing to install.

What risk level is operation-log? +

operation-log is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit operation-log? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the operation-log 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.

How do I block operation-log completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for operation-log. 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.

What MCP server provides operation-log? +

operation-log is provided by the Jj MCP server (jj-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
