autoPrioritize · Knowledge MCP Server MCP: Risk & Policy

Q: How do I enforce a policy on autoPrioritize?

Register the Knowledge MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for autoPrioritize: 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 Knowledge MCP Server. Nothing to install.

Q: What risk level is autoPrioritize?

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

Q: Can I rate-limit autoPrioritize?

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the autoPrioritize 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.

Q: How do I block autoPrioritize completely?

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

Q: What MCP server provides autoPrioritize?

autoPrioritize is provided by the Knowledge MCP Server MCP server (vuluu2k/knowledge_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

WHAT IT DOES

What autoPrioritize does on Knowledge MCP Server

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why autoPrioritize needs a policy

This tool moves/modifies task records from the backlog to today's list, which is a reversible write operation. It does not delete or irreversibly destroy data, nor does it execute code or involve financial transactions. The blast radius is moderate — an AI agent could misuse it to clutter today's task list with unintended items, but the effect is recoverable.

From the tool's definition Promote top backlog tasks to today. Selects by priority + deadline + estimate score.
