MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

High Risk

The most dangerous Mdfmcp tools

Write · Low close_mdf Closing an MDF session modifies the state of an open resource by terminating it and releasing associated memory/handles. Write · Medium plot_signals The tool creates a plot, which is a write operation generating a new output artifact.

2 of Mdfmcp's 7 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control Mdfmcp

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

Rate limit write operations

{
  "close_mdf": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "close_mdf_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations

{
  "calculate_statistics": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "calculate_statistics_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

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

Create a free account and register Mdfmcp — nothing to install.
Add these rules — paste them, or build them visually. Tune the limits to your setup.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

FAQ

Questions about Mdfmcp

How do I prevent bulk modifications through Mdfmcp? +

The Mdfmcp server has 2 write tools including close_mdf, plot_signals. 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 Mdfmcp.

How many tools does the Mdf MCP server expose? +

7 tools across 2 categories: Read, Write. 5 are read-only. 2 can modify, create, or delete data.

How do I enforce a policy on Mdfmcp? +

Register the Mdf 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.

Enforce policy on every Mdfmcp tool call.

Deterministic rules across all 7 Mdfmcp tools. Per-identity grants. Full audit log. Live in minutes. Nothing to install.
