AI agents use generate_report to create or update resources in CHAI pentest tool — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your CHAI pentest tool environment.
This tool creates new data artifacts (reports) but does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or initiate financial transactions. Report generation is a reversible write operation—reports can be regenerated or deleted without cascading side effects.
From the tool's definition The tool 'generate_report' creates a penetration test report, which generates and produces output data without permanently destructing or executing external commands.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access generate_report gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and CHAI pentest tool, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for generate_report:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"generate_report": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "generate_report_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}generate_report 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.

Generate penetration test report. It is categorised as a Write tool in the CHAI pentest tool MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the CHAI pentest tool MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for generate_report: 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 CHAI pentest tool. Nothing to install.
generate_report 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 generate_report 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 generate_report. 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.
generate_report is provided by the CHAI pentest tool MCP server (nihar-sarkar/chai). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from CHAI pentest tool, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
