Mark task as complete Use when native TodoWrite is wrong because you need cross-session task persistence, agent assignment, dependency tracking, or completion analytics in the .swarm/memory.db. For in-session checklists native TodoWrite is simpler and faster.
AI agents use task_complete to create or update resources in Ruflo — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Ruflo environment.
The tool modifies task state in a persistent database, which is a write operation. It's not Read (no query/retrieval), not Execute (doesn't run arbitrary code or trigger external actions), not Destructive (marking tasks complete is reversible—tasks can be reopened), and not Financial.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Mark task as complete' and references writing to '.swarm/memory.db' for 'cross-session task persistence' and 'completion analytics'. This is a reversible state modification operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Mark task as complete Use when native TodoWrite is wrong because you need cross-session task persistence, agent assignment, dependency tracking, or completion analytics in the .swarm/memory.db. For in-session checklists native TodoWrite is simpler and faster. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Ruflo MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Ruflo MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for task_complete: 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 Ruflo. Nothing to install.
task_complete is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the task_complete 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 task_complete. 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.
task_complete is provided by the Ruflo MCP server (ruvnet/ruflo). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
task_complete is one line of Ruflo's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
