WHAT IT DOES

What plan_status does on Mcp Hands

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

RISK

Why plan_status is rated Medium

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

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs plan_status safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Hands, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For plan_status, this is the rule to start with:

plan_status Rate-limited

plan_status 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.
