WHAT IT DOES

What import_cargo_catalog does on Sanka MCP Server

AI agents use import_cargo_catalog 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 import_cargo_catalog is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies multiple types of records in a catalog system (categories, suppliers, research runs, sources, claims, artifacts, snapshots). Although 'import' could suggest a read operation, the functional effect is to populate or update the global catalog with new data structures. The tool is idempotent (safe to repeat) and explicitly does not publish, suggesting the changes are not final/destructive.

From the tool's definition The tool performs 'import' operations that create or modify data ('categories, suppliers, research runs, sources, claims, raw artifacts, and draft or ready-for-review LP snapshots').

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs import_cargo_catalog 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 import_cargo_catalog, this is the rule to start with:

import_cargo_catalog Rate-limited

import_cargo_catalog 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.
