Mark an inbox item as a false positive with a reason
AI agents use mark_inbox_item_as_false_positive to create or update resources in RAD Security — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your RAD Security environment.
This tool creates or modifies data reversibly—it updates the classification/status of a security finding in the RAD Security inbox. The operation is reversible (the marking can be undone or changed), so it falls into the Write category rather than Destructive.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'mark_inbox_item_as_false_positive' and description 'Mark an inbox item as a false positive with a reason' indicate the tool modifies the state of a security finding/inbox item by marking it with a false positive status.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and RAD Security, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for mark_inbox_item_as_false_positive:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"mark_inbox_item_as_false_positive": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "mark_inbox_item_as_false_positive_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} mark_inbox_item_as_false_positive 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.
