## Facts

- Tool: `execute`
- Server: Sanka MCP Server (`sankahq/sanka-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/sankahq-sanka-mcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/sankaHQ/sanka-mcp
- Risk category: Execute (High risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "execute",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why execute is rated High

This tool executes arbitrary code, which can have unpredictable side effects depending on the code provided. While not inherently destructive or financial, code execution is a high-severity risk because a compromised or misdirected AI agent could execute malicious code, access sensitive data, modify system state, or trigger unintended operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'execute' with description 'Code to execute' directly indicates arbitrary code execution capabilities. The server description notes 'code execution capabilities' as a core feature."

## Use case

AI agents invoke execute to trigger actions in Sanka MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Sanka MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "execute": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "execute_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
