THE RISK

Medium Risk

Why export_analysis needs a policy

The tool creates new files containing analysis results, which is a reversible write operation. While the exported file is a new artifact, it does not destructively overwrite existing critical data, nor does it execute arbitrary code or move assets.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Export analysis results (functions, symbols) to JSON file' — this creates/writes a new file with exported data.

POLICY

How to control export_analysis

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Kawaiidra MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for export_analysis:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "export_analysis": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "export_analysis_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

export_analysis 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.

Create a free account and register Kawaiidra MCP — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

FAQ

Questions about export_analysis

What does the export_analysis tool do? +

Export analysis results (functions, symbols) to JSON file. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Kawaiidra MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on export_analysis? +

Register the Kawaiidra MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for export_analysis: 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 Kawaiidra MCP. Nothing to install.

What risk level is export_analysis? +

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

Can I rate-limit export_analysis? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the export_analysis 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.

How do I block export_analysis completely? +

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

What MCP server provides export_analysis? +

export_analysis is provided by the Kawaiidra MCP server (wagonbomb/kawaiidra-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Kawaiidra MCP tool call.

Start from Kawaiidra MCP, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
