Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs async_tool safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Enhanced Image Analysis MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For async_tool, this is the rule to start with:
async_tool gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Enhanced Image Analysis MCP Server, apply this rule, and every async_tool call is checked against it from then on.
