Why manage_group is rated Low

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs manage_group safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Kestra Python MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For manage_group, this is the rule to start with:
manage_group gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Kestra Python MCP Server, apply this rule, and every manage_group call is checked against it from then on.

Register the Kestra Python MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for manage_group: 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 Kestra Python MCP Server. Nothing to install.
manage_group is a Other tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the manage_group 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 manage_group. 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.
manage_group is provided by the Kestra Python MCP Server MCP server (kestra-io/mcp-server-python). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
