Destructive tools (forget, polymarket_edges, recall) permanently delete resources. There is no undo. An agent calling these in a retry loop causes irreversible damage.

Write operations (discover_tools, generate_llms_txt, resolve_entity) modify state. Without rate limits, an agent can make hundreds of changes in seconds — faster than any human can review or revert.

Execute tools (dataflow_structure) trigger processes with side effects. Builds, notifications, workflows — all fired without throttling.

Deny destructive operations
{
  "forget": {
    "deny_if": [
      {
        "conditions": [],
        "on_deny": "Blocked by default. Requires approval."
      }
    ]
  }
}

Destructive tools should never be available to autonomous agents without human approval.

Rate limit write operations
{
  "discover_tools": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "discover_tools_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations
{
  "ai_visibility_check": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "ai_visibility_check_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

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

Can an AI agent delete data through the Istat It MCP server? +

Yes. The Istat It server exposes 4 destructive tools including forget, polymarket_edges, recall. These permanently remove resources with no undo. PolicyLayer blocks destructive tools by default so they never reach the upstream server.

How do I prevent bulk modifications through Istat It? +

The Istat It server has 3 write tools including discover_tools, generate_llms_txt, resolve_entity. Set a rate limit in your policy -- for example, 10 calls per hour prevents an agent from making more than 10 modifications per hour. PolicyLayer enforces this at the gateway, before calls reach Istat It.

How many tools does the Istat It MCP server expose? +

23 tools across 4 categories: Destructive, Execute, Read, Write. 15 are read-only. 8 can modify, create, or delete data.

How do I enforce a policy on Istat It? +

Register the Istat It MCP server in PolicyLayer, apply the suggested rules above (adjust the limits to your use case), and point your AI client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL instead of the server directly. Your agents keep the same tools; PolicyLayer evaluates every call against policy before it executes. Nothing to install, live in minutes.
