MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

High Risk

The most dangerous Typst MCP Server tools

Execute · Medium latex_snippets_to_typst Based on the tool name, this appears to convert LaTeX snippets to Typst format, similar to the sibling tool 'latex_snippet_to_typst'. Execute · Medium typst_snippet_to_image This tool renders/executes Typst code to produce an image output. Write · Low latex_snippet_to_typst Based on the name and server context, this tool converts a LaTeX snippet to Typst format.

3 of Typst MCP Server's 8 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control Typst MCP Server

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

Rate limit write operations

{
  "latex_snippet_to_typst": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "latex_snippet_to_typst_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations

{
  "check_if_snippet_is_valid_typst_syntax": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "check_if_snippet_is_valid_typst_syntax_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

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