AI agents use taskNotePut to create or update resources in Mcp Taskade — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Mcp Taskade environment.
This tool creates or modifies task notes in a reversible manner. It does not execute code, delete data irreversibly, or move money. The modification is scoped to note content on a task, making it a Write operation with medium severity due to potential for spam, misinformation injection, or workflow disruption if misused by an agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'taskNotePut' and description 'Add/update a note to the task' indicate reversible modification of task data. The 'Put' verb and 'add/update' language confirm write operations.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access taskNotePut gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Taskade, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for taskNotePut:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"taskNotePut": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "tasknoteput_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}taskNotePut 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.
Free to start. No card required.
Add/update a note to the task. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Mcp Taskade MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Mcp Taskade MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for taskNotePut: 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 Mcp Taskade. Nothing to install.
taskNotePut is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the taskNotePut 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 taskNotePut. 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.
taskNotePut is provided by the Mcp Taskade MCP server (taskade/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
