What record_interaction does on Agentos

AI agents use record_interaction to create or update resources in Agentos — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Agentos environment.

Medium Risk

Why record_interaction needs a policy

This tool creates/writes new records and modifies existing trust score state in a reversible manner. It does not delete data (Destructive), does not directly execute code or external operations (Execute), and does not involve financial transactions (Financial).

From the tool's definition Tool modifies state by recording interaction outcomes that 'update trust scores'. The description explicitly indicates this creates or updates records ('Record an interaction outcome').

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access record_interaction gives an agent:

How to control record_interaction

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Agentos, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for record_interaction:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "record_interaction": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "record_interaction_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

record_interaction stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Agentos — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

Questions about record_interaction

What does the record_interaction tool do? +

Record an interaction outcome to update trust scores. Valid outcomes: success, failure, timeout, partial. Positive outcomes raise trust; negative outcomes lower it. Args: peer_did: The DID of the peer agent involved. outcome: Interaction result — one of success, failure, timeout, partial. details: Free-text description of the interaction. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Agentos MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on record_interaction? +

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

What risk level is record_interaction? +

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

Can I rate-limit record_interaction? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the record_interaction 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 record_interaction completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for record_interaction. 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 record_interaction? +

record_interaction is provided by the Agentos MCP server (@microsoft/agentos-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 Agentos tool call.

Start from Agentos, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
