Promote an organization to a consulting pipeline stage. Upserts the row if the tea_id is not already in the table (useful for orgs added to TEA after the initial seed).
AI agents use crow_consulting_promote to create or update resources in Crow — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Crow environment.
The tool modifies organizational state within a project management system by promoting/upserting records. This is a Write operation (creates or modifies data reversibly) rather than Read (retrieves) or Destructive (cannot be undone).
From the tool's definition 'Promote an organization to a consulting pipeline stage. Upserts the row if the tea_id is not already in the table' - describes modifying or creating organizational records in a pipeline stage table
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access crow_consulting_promote gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Crow, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for crow_consulting_promote:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"crow_consulting_promote": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "crow_consulting_promote_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}crow_consulting_promote 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.

Promote an organization to a consulting pipeline stage. Upserts the row if the tea_id is not already in the table (useful for orgs added to TEA after the initial seed). It is categorised as a Write tool in the Crow MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Crow MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for crow_consulting_promote: 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 Crow. Nothing to install.
crow_consulting_promote is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the crow_consulting_promote 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 crow_consulting_promote. 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.
crow_consulting_promote is provided by the Crow MCP server (kh0pper/crow). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Crow, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
