The rule that runs illustrator_path_operation 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_path_operation, this is the rule to start with:
illustrator_path_operation stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times 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_path_operation call is checked against it from then on.
