AI agents call choose-next to retrieve information from AskMeMCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool facilitates human-in-the-loop decision-making by presenting options and collecting user choices. It reads/queries user input through a web interface but does not execute arbitrary code, modify persistent data, delete information, or commit financial obligations. The severity is low because misuse would only result in incorrect workflow direction choices, not data loss or system compromise.
From the tool's definition 'Present decision points in workflows' and 'need human input to choose the next focus area' indicate the tool retrieves human judgment/input without modifying data. No creation, modification, deletion, execution of code/commands, or financial operations occur.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Present decision points in workflows (requirements, ideation, specification, conceptual work) where you need human input to choose the next focus area or approach. Use this when you have multiple viable paths forward and need human judgment to decide which direction to pursue. The user will see options as visually appealing, animated boxes they can click to select. Perfect for: workflow decisions, requirement prioritization, feature selection, design direction choices, technical approach decisions, or any. It is categorised as a Read tool in the AskMeMCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the AskMe MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for choose-next: 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 AskMeMCP. Nothing to install.
choose-next 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 choose-next 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 choose-next. 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.
choose-next is provided by the AskMe MCP server (roman-vm/ask-me-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
