What reclaim_create_task does on Reclaim Ai MCP Server

Why reclaim_create_task needs a policy

Creating a task is a reversible write operation that modifies application state but does not delete data or execute arbitrary code. While the tool description itself is empty, the server description and tool name clearly establish its write capability. Severity is medium because task creation has limited blast radius—it adds clutter but doesn't directly compromise data integrity or trigger financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'reclaim_create_task' indicates creation of a new task. Server description explicitly mentions 'creating' tasks as a core capability.

How to control reclaim_create_task

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Reclaim Ai MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for reclaim_create_task:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "reclaim_create_task": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "reclaim_create_task_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

reclaim_create_task 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.
