revise_spec_proposal · Scrumdo MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What revise_spec_proposal does on Scrumdo

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why revise_spec_proposal needs a policy

The name implies editing/updating a spec proposal (a reversible write operation). Without a description, confidence is low, but 'revise' strongly suggests a modification action. Sibling tools like 'accept_spec_proposal' and 'approve_agent_plan' suggest a workflow around proposals, making Write the most likely category.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'revise_spec_proposal' suggests modifying an existing specification proposal; description is empty and uninformative.
