WHAT IT DOES

What calculate_incentives does on Sanka MCP Server

AI agents use calculate_incentives to create or update resources in Sanka MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Sanka MCP Server environment.

RISK

Why calculate_incentives is rated Medium

The tool defaults to a dry run (read-only preview) but can transition to writing state when dry_run=false is set, which stores calculated incentive drafts. This is a reversible modification of data (drafts can be edited or discarded before finalization), making it a Write operation rather than Execute or Destructive.

From the tool's definition The tool 'calculate_incentives' with description states it 'set dry_run=false only when the user explicitly wants drafts stored' — this indicates the tool creates or modifies data (draft incentive records) when dry_run is disabled.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs calculate_incentives safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Sanka MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For calculate_incentives, this is the rule to start with:

calculate_incentives Rate-limited

calculate_incentives 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.
