What todo_complete does on Ruflo
AI agents use todo_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.
Why todo_complete is rated Medium
This tool creates or modifies data reversibly by updating a task's completion status. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money. The operation can be undone by marking the task incomplete again. Given the low-risk nature of task state modifications and the limited blast radius of misuse (a task incorrectly marked complete), severity is low.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'todo_complete' and description 'Mark a task as complete' indicate a state change operation that modifies task records.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs todo_complete safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ruflo, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For todo_complete, this is the rule to start with:
todo_complete 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Ruflo, apply this rule, and every todo_complete call is checked against it from then on.
