# github_update_issue A write tool on the Integrations MCP MCP server. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `github_update_issue`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/github-update-issue ## Facts - Tool: `github_update_issue` - Server: Integrations MCP (`shriram-vasudevan/integrations-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/Shriram-Vasudevan/integrations-mcp - Risk category: Write (Medium 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": "github_update_issue", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why github_update_issue is rated Medium The tool updates GitHub issues, which involves modifying existing data (issue title, description, assignees, labels, state, etc.). This is a reversible write operation—changes can be undone or corrected. Severity is high because uncontrolled updates to issues in shared repositories could disrupt project tracking, reassign work incorrectly, or close critical issues. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'github_update_issue' indicates modification of an existing GitHub issue. The 'update' verb signifies a write operation that modifies data reversibly. Description is empty, reducing confidence slightly but the name is unambiguous." ## Use case AI agents use github_update_issue to create or update resources in Integrations MCP, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Integrations MCP environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**.
