AI agents use agentbond_issue_token to create or modify resources in AgentBond. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call agentbond_issue_token repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach AgentBond.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so agentbond_issue_token only ever does what you allow.

What does the agentbond_issue_token tool do? +

Issue a new authorization token. If parentTokenId is provided, delegation constraints are validated (child scope/budget/expiry must not exceed parent).. It is categorised as a Write tool in the AgentBond MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on agentbond_issue_token? +

Register the AgentBond MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for agentbond_issue_token: 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 AgentBond. Nothing to install.

What risk level is agentbond_issue_token? +

agentbond_issue_token is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit agentbond_issue_token? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the agentbond_issue_token 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.

How do I block agentbond_issue_token completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for agentbond_issue_token. 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.

What MCP server provides agentbond_issue_token? +

agentbond_issue_token is provided by the AgentBond MCP server (agentbond/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every AgentBond tool call.
