WHAT IT DOES

What diff_workflow_versions does on Todo for AI MCP Server

AI agents call diff_workflow_versions to retrieve information from Todo for AI MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why diff_workflow_versions is rated Low

Even though diff_workflow_versions only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs diff_workflow_versions safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Todo for AI MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For diff_workflow_versions, this is the rule to start with:

diff_workflow_versions Allowed

diff_workflow_versions is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Todo for AI MCP Server, apply this rule, and every diff_workflow_versions call is checked against it from then on.
