The rule that runs frida_kill safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ya Frida, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For frida_kill, this is the rule to start with:
frida_kill is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Ya Frida, apply this rule, and every frida_kill call is checked against it from then on.
