The rule that runs propose_fix safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and 0sec, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For propose_fix, this is the rule to start with:
propose_fix stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect 0sec, apply this rule, and every propose_fix call is checked against it from then on.
