Generate a report on task status. Shows all tasks if no ID provided, or details for a specific task.
AI agents call report to retrieve information from SystemPrompt Coding Agent without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'report' tool retrieves and displays information about task statuses without making any changes to the system state, executing code, or affecting data persistence. It is purely informational, consistent with Read category tools like 'get', 'list', or 'fetch'. The low severity reflects that misuse would only expose information rather than cause operational damage.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Generate a report on task status. Shows all tasks if no ID provided, or details for a specific task.' This is a query/retrieval operation with no modification, creation, deletion, or execution of code.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access report gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and SystemPrompt Coding Agent, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for report:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"report": {}
}
}report is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Generate a report on task status. Shows all tasks if no ID provided, or details for a specific task. It is categorised as a Read tool in the SystemPrompt Coding Agent MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the SystemPrompt Coding Agent MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for report: 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 SystemPrompt Coding Agent. Nothing to install.
report 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 report 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 report. 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.
report is provided by the SystemPrompt Coding Agent MCP server (systempromptio/systemprompt-code-orchestrator). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
