MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

High Risk

The most dangerous Grounded Aeo tools

Execute · High run_audit Tool crawls external sites and queues data changes, triggering external operations with side effects. Write · Medium generate_free_record This tool creates/generates new data artifacts (DNS TXT record and JSON file) that the user will publish, which is a reversible write operation.

2 of Grounded Aeo's 14 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control Grounded Aeo

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Grounded Aeo, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. These are the rules we recommend:

Rate limit write operations

{
  "generate_free_record": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "generate_free_record_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations

{
  "check_aeo_record": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "check_aeo_record_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.

Add these rules — paste them, or build them visually. Tune the limits to your setup.
