disconnect · NLSQL MCP Server MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What disconnect does on NLSQL MCP Server

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

An AI agent can call disconnect faster than any human can review — one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in NLSQL MCP Server by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Verdict

disconnect Rate-limited

disconnect 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.
