# rsync_task_run Run an rsync task immediately Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `rsync_task_run`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/spranab-truenas-mcp/rsync-task-run ## Facts - Tool: `rsync_task_run` - Server: Truenas (`spranab/truenas-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/spranab-truenas-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/spranab/truenas-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": "rsync_task_run", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why rsync_task_run is rated High This tool executes an external operation (rsync) that transfers data between systems. While rsync itself is not inherently destructive, it is an Execute category tool because it runs external commands whose effects are determined by the task's configuration parameters. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'rsync_task_run' explicitly performs 'Run an rsync task immediately'. Rsync execution is a network data transfer operation that triggers external system operations whose effects depend on task configuration arguments (source, destination, filters,…" ## Use case AI agents invoke rsync_task_run to trigger actions in Truenas. 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**.
