stop_test_session · Yo Bug MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What stop_test_session does on Yo Bug

AI agents invoke stop_test_session to trigger actions in Yo Bug. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why stop_test_session needs a policy

stop_test_session triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once — it starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

Verdict

stop_test_session Rate-limited

stop_test_session stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
