- highexcessive agencyf-r3-create_collection
Tool `create-collection` name implies a side effect that is not declared
`create-collection` looks like a side-effecting tool (its name contains a mutation verb), but its `side_effects` declaration is []. A policy synthesizer cannot produce safe rules for this tool because it cannot tell what it actually does.
fix: Declare the tool's true side effects explicitly. If the tool is genuinely read-only, rename it to match (e.g. `email.preview` rather than `email.send`).
OWASP LLM08NIST MEASURE-2.6ATLAS T0051 - mediumunconstrained inputf-r1-create_collection
Tool `create-collection` accepts unconstrained string input
The following string parameter(s) have no `maxLength` constraint: `collection`, `database`. Unbounded strings let an attacker stuff arbitrary payloads through the tool, including indirect-injection content.
fix: Add a `maxLength` to each string property, or constrain with an `enum` or `pattern`. Most legitimate tool inputs fit under a few hundred bytes.
