WHAT IT DOES

What edit_site_section does on FeatureBoard

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

RISK

Why edit_site_section is rated Medium

This tool modifies website content through patching existing sections or appending new ones, then re-renders the page. These are reversible Write operations (not Destructive since patches can be undone/reverted). The high severity reflects that an AI agent with this capability could modify live website content, affecting all users viewing that site.

From the tool's definition Tool performs 'patch' and 'append' operations on website sections; explicitly stated 're-renders the page' indicating persistent state changes.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs edit_site_section safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and FeatureBoard, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For edit_site_section, this is the rule to start with:

edit_site_section Rate-limited

edit_site_section 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.

    }
  }
}

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect FeatureBoard, apply this rule, and every edit_site_section call is checked against it from then on.
