Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs hello safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Nano Banana, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For hello, this is the rule to start with:
hello 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 Nano Banana, apply this rule, and every hello call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about hello
A simple hello world tool. It is categorised as a Other tool in the Nano Banana MCP Server, which means it performs auxiliary operations.
Register the Nano Banana MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for hello: 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 Nano Banana. Nothing to install.
hello is a Other tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the hello 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for hello. 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.
hello is provided by the Nano Banana MCP server (aeven-ai/mcp-nanobanana). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
