What start_team_collaboration does on Automagik Tools
AI agents invoke start_team_collaboration to trigger actions in Automagik Tools. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why start_team_collaboration is rated High
This tool triggers execution of external agent operations (team collaboration workflows) based on user input. While the effects are somewhat bounded by the collaborative agent framework, the actual operations performed depend entirely on the task description provided, making it an Execute category tool.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Start a collaborative session with a team of agents' and 'the team will work together' on a user-described task. This initiates execution of agent workflows whose effects depend on the task description provided as an argument.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs start_team_collaboration safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Automagik Tools, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For start_team_collaboration, this is the rule to start with:
start_team_collaboration stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Automagik Tools, apply this rule, and every start_team_collaboration call is checked against it from then on.
