Manage a todo list. Actions: list, add (text), toggle (id), clear
AI agents use todo to create or update resources in Openaaas Mcp Adapter — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Openaaas Mcp Adapter environment.
The tool performs multiple operations on a todo list: 'add' creates new items (Write), 'toggle' modifies existing items (Write), and 'list' reads items (Read). 'clear' could be considered Destructive (removes all items), but todo list data is generally low-stakes and recoverable. The most severe non-trivial action is Write (add/toggle), and 'clear' while destructive in nature is low-impact on a todo list.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access todo gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Openaaas Mcp Adapter, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for todo:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"todo": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "todo_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}todo 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.

Manage a todo list. Actions: list, add (text), toggle (id), clear. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Openaaas Mcp Adapter MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Openaaas Mcp Adapter MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for todo: 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 Openaaas Mcp Adapter. Nothing to install.
todo is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the todo 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for todo. 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.
todo is provided by the Openaaas Mcp Adapter MCP server (wolido/openaaas). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Openaaas Mcp Adapter, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
