WHAT IT DOES

What parse_sheet does on MCP Sheet Parser

AI agents invoke parse_sheet to trigger actions in MCP Sheet Parser. 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 parse_sheet needs a policy

parse_sheet 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

parse_sheet Rate-limited

parse_sheet 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.
