Retrieve image attachments for a task. Returns URLs of images attached to the task, useful for viewing mockups, screenshots, or design references. Use when you need to see visual context for a task.
AI agents call get_task_images to retrieve information from Nubis without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves and returns existing image data without modifying, executing, or deleting anything. It is a read-only operation to access visual attachments associated with a task, consistent with other retrieval tools in the Nubis server like get_labels, get_task_commits, and get_task_context.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Retrieve image attachments for a task' and 'Returns URLs of images attached to the task' — this is purely a retrieval operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Retrieve image attachments for a task. Returns URLs of images attached to the task, useful for viewing mockups, screenshots, or design references. Use when you need to see visual context for a task. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Nubis MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Nubis MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_task_images: 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 Nubis. Nothing to install.
get_task_images is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_task_images 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 get_task_images. 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.
get_task_images is provided by the Nubis MCP server (@lil2good/nubis-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
