The rule that runs illustrator_adjust_colors safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Adobe Mcp Suite, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For illustrator_adjust_colors, this is the rule to start with:
illustrator_adjust_colors 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 Adobe Mcp Suite, apply this rule, and every illustrator_adjust_colors call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about illustrator_adjust_colors
Illustrator: Change colours by script, following Illustrator's colour commands: saturate (Edit > Edit Colors > Saturate: scales each ink, RGB colour amount or spot tint by a percentage), adjust_balance (Edit > Edit Colors > Adjust Color Balance: adds percentages to the CMYK, RGB, gray or global-tint values of colours already in that mode; convert first with edit_colors), complement (Color panel > Complement: the sum of the highest and lowest component minus each component), web_safe (each RGB value to the nearest web-safe step) or printable (RGB brought into the CMYK gamut, like clicking the Color panel's out-of-gamut warning). Works on the fills and strokes of targets (paths, groups, compound paths, text), or on the swatches in a colour group (recolouring global and spot colours updates the artwork, as Recolor Artwork does for a colour group). Gradient stops change only with gradients: true, and then everywhere the gradient is used. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Adobe Mcp Suite MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
