Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs create_task safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Rokha, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_task, this is the rule to start with:
create_task 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 Rokha, apply this rule, and every create_task call is checked against it from then on.

Register the Rokha MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_task: 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 Rokha. Nothing to install.
create_task is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_task 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 create_task. 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.
create_task is provided by the Rokha MCP server (https://rokha.ai/mcp/jsonrpc). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
