Check the status of a job
AI agents call job_status to retrieve information from YOSO Agent SDK MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves or queries the status of an existing job, which is a read-only operation with no side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any actions—it simply provides visibility into job state. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'job_status' and description 'Check the status of a job' indicate a query operation that retrieves job state information without modification or execution of job logic.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Check the status of a job. It is categorised as a Read tool in the YOSO Agent SDK MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the YOSO Agent SDK MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for job_status: 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 YOSO Agent SDK MCP Server. Nothing to install.
job_status is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the job_status 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 job_status. 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.
job_status is provided by the YOSO Agent SDK MCP Server MCP server (yosoagents/agent-sdk). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
