What push_files does on Gitee

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

Medium Risk

Why push_files needs a policy

This tool creates or modifies files in a repository by pushing them, which is a reversible write operation. It does not delete data (Destructive), execute arbitrary code (Execute), or involve financial transactions (Financial). The severity is medium because pushing files to a repository can affect code versioning and project state, but changes can typically be reverted via version control.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'push_files' combined with description '向 Gitee 仓库提交多个文件' (push multiple files to Gitee repository) indicates file modification/creation operations on a repository.

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

How to control push_files

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "push_files": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "push_files_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

push_files 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.

  1. Create a free account and register Gitee — 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.

Enforce policy on every Gitee tool call.

Start from Gitee, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
