range_abort

Abort an in-progress range deployment, stopping all deployment tasks.

How to control range_abort ↓

AI agents call range_abort to retrieve information from LudusMCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

Even though range_abort only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access range_abort gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and LudusMCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for range_abort:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "range_abort": {}
  }
}

range_abort is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register LudusMCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

How do I enforce a policy on range_abort? +

Register the LudusMCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for range_abort: 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 LudusMCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is range_abort? +

range_abort is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit range_abort? +

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

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

range_abort is provided by the LudusMCP Server MCP server (noctedefensor/ludusmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every LudusMCP Server tool call.
