  • LowAS-011

    ℹ️Missing Rate-Limit / Timeout ×7

    tool performs network or execution operations but declares no rate-limit, timeout, or retry configuration

    create_commentcreate_issueupdate_issuecreate_issue_labelcreate_projectupdate_projectsearch_documentation

    Fix: Declare explicit rate-limit, timeout, and retry configuration for all network and execution tools. Implement exponential back-off and surface resource state to the calling agent.

    Tool did not expose metadata.dependencies or repo_url, so supply-chain coverage is limited.
