What add does on Agent Jail
AI agents call add as a supporting operation in Agent Jail workflows.
Why add is rated Low
With no description and only the generic name 'add', there is insufficient information to confidently assign a risk category. 'Add' could mean adding numbers (Other/Read), adding a record (Write), or something else entirely. Defaulting to Other with low confidence due to lack of evidence.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'add' and description is empty/uninformative. Cannot determine what this tool does from available information.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs add safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Agent Jail, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For add, this is the rule to start with:
add 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 Agent Jail, apply this rule, and every add call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about add
add is a other tool on the Agent Jail MCP server. It is categorised as a Other tool in the Agent Jail MCP Server, which means it performs auxiliary operations.
Register the Agent Jail MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for add: 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 Agent Jail. Nothing to install.
add 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 add 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 add. 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.
add is provided by the Agent Jail MCP server (idiscoord13-sketch/agent-jail-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
