intoto_record_chain_run
Wraps the result of a run_chain call (server/auto compute mode) as standard in-toto links, one per successfully-executed step, plus a generated in-toto layout matching the chain's linear topology (each step MATCHes the previous step's product). Materials/products are keyed by the step's execution...

What intoto_record_chain_run does on Ainumbers Mcp Apps
AI agents invoke intoto_record_chain_run to trigger actions in Ainumbers Mcp Apps. 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.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
run_chain_result | object | Yes | The structuredContent object returned by run_chain (must include chain and steps[]). |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why intoto_record_chain_run is rated High
intoto_record_chain_run triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs intoto_record_chain_run safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ainumbers Mcp Apps, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For intoto_record_chain_run, this is the rule to start with:
intoto_record_chain_run 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 Ainumbers Mcp Apps, apply this rule, and every intoto_record_chain_run call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about intoto_record_chain_run
Wraps the result of a run_chain call (server/auto compute mode) as standard in-toto links, one per successfully-executed step, plus a generated in-toto layout matching the chain's linear topology (each step MATCHes the previous step's product). Materials/products are keyed by the step's execution_hash; byproducts carries the raw execution_hash. All links and the layout are DSSE-signed with one ephemeral Ed25519 keypair scoped to this call (never persisted) — first shipping instance of "in-toto for MCP" per the 2026 research gap survey. Verify the bundle offline with the in-toto Link Builder & Verifier (chaingraph/intoto-link-builder.html verify tab) or a reference implementation. Steps that did not run (input_required, skipped_by_gate, gpu_browser_only, etc.) are listed in skipped[] rather than silently omitted. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Ainumbers Mcp Apps MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
intoto_record_chain_run accepts 1 parameter: run_chain_result. Required: run_chain_result. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Ainumbers Mcp Apps MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for intoto_record_chain_run: 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 Ainumbers Mcp Apps. Nothing to install.
intoto_record_chain_run is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the intoto_record_chain_run 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 intoto_record_chain_run. 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.
intoto_record_chain_run is provided by the Ainumbers Mcp Apps MCP server (postoaklabs/ainumbers-mcp-apps). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
