How to control create_issue ↓

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

Medium Risk

Creating an issue in a project management system is a reversible write operation that modifies project state by adding new data. It does not delete, execute arbitrary code, or move money. The severity is medium because bulk creation of false or malicious issues could disrupt project workflows, but the impact is bounded to the project scope and reversible via deletion.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create_issue' on a project management platform bridge; sibling tools include create_epic, bulk_create_tasks, bulk_create_user_stories, all of which are creation operations.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_issue gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Taiga MCP Bridge, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_issue:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_issue": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_issue_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

create_issue stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Taiga MCP Bridge — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

What does the create_issue tool do? +

create_issue. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Taiga MCP Bridge MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on create_issue? +

Register the Taiga MCP Bridge MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_issue: 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 Taiga MCP Bridge. Nothing to install.

What risk level is create_issue? +

create_issue is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit create_issue? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_issue 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.

How do I block create_issue completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_issue. 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.

What MCP server provides create_issue? +

create_issue is provided by the Taiga MCP Bridge MCP server (talhaorak/pytaiga-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Taiga MCP Bridge tool call.
