login · CodeBadger MCP: Risk & Policy

Q: What risk level is login?

login is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

WHAT IT DOES

What login does on CodeBadger

AI agents use login to create or update resources in CodeBadger — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your CodeBadger environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why login needs a policy

An AI agent can call login faster than any human can review — one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in CodeBadger by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Verdict

login 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.

What does the login tool do? +

login. It is categorised as a Write tool in the CodeBadger MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on login? +

Register the CodeBadger MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for login: 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 CodeBadger. Nothing to install.

Can I rate-limit login? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the login 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 login completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for login. 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 login? +

login is provided by the CodeBadger MCP server (lekssays/codebadger). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
