WHAT IT DOES

What resume_focus_session does on Todos

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

RISK

Why resume_focus_session is rated Medium

Resuming a paused focus session modifies the state of an existing session (from paused to active), which is a reversible state change. This is a Write operation with low severity as it only affects a local session state within a task management system.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs resume_focus_session safely

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

resume_focus_session Rate-limited

resume_focus_session 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.
