What custom_name does on Agent Jail
AI agents call custom_name as a supporting operation in Agent Jail workflows.
Why custom_name is rated Low
With an empty description and an ambiguous name, it is impossible to determine the tool's behavior or risk. Defaulting to 'Other' with low confidence and low severity since there is no evidence of any impactful action.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'custom_name' and description is empty, providing no actionable information about what the tool does.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs custom_name 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 custom_name, this is the rule to start with:
custom_name 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 custom_name call is checked against it from then on.
