WHAT IT DOES

What generate_variants does on Stitch MCP Server

AI agents use generate_variants to create or update resources in Stitch MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Stitch MCP Server environment.

RISK

Why generate_variants is rated Medium

The tool creates new design variants, which constitutes generating and storing new data artifacts within the Stitch project. This is a reversible Write operation (variants can be deleted or overwritten). It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Generate design variants of an existing screen' — this creates new design artifacts (variants) from an existing screen, modifying or extending the design state.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs generate_variants safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Stitch MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For generate_variants, this is the rule to start with:

generate_variants Rate-limited

generate_variants 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 Stitch MCP Server, apply this rule, and every generate_variants call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about generate_variants

What does the generate_variants tool do? +

Generate design variants of an existing screen. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Stitch MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on generate_variants? +

Register the Stitch MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for generate_variants: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Stitch MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is generate_variants? +

generate_variants is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit generate_variants? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the generate_variants rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block generate_variants completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for generate_variants. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides generate_variants? +

generate_variants is provided by the Stitch MCP Server MCP server (0x-professor/stitch-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
