AI agents call get_my_issues to retrieve information from Redmine MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns issue data specific to the authenticated user. It performs a read-only retrieval with no capability to modify, delete, or execute operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve issues already visible to the user within their own work context.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_my_issues' and description 'Get a list of issues assigned to me' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_my_issues gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Redmine MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_my_issues:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_my_issues": {}
}
}get_my_issues is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Get a list of issues assigned to me. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Redmine MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Redmine MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_my_issues: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Redmine MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_my_issues is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_my_issues rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_my_issues. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
get_my_issues is provided by the Redmine MCP Server MCP server (snowild/redmine-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Redmine MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
