AI agents use generate_image to create or modify resources in Switch. 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 generate_image 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 Switch.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Generate one or more Switch images. Auto-routes to the right model based on subject (Nano Banana 2 default, GPT Image 2 for swimwear/beach, Switch Model/Ultra/Pro for sexier content, Nano Banana Pro for typography-heavy). Counts <= 8 render inline in chat; counts > 8 queue to your Switch Studio with progress polling. All images persist to your Studio library and folder. Pass an optional style (e.g. "wellness/warm_amber_tropical", "high_fashion_editorial/testino_glossy", "movie_scene/neon_noir_action") to apply a curated photographic stack from the apply_* skill tools.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Switch MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Switch MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for generate_image: 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 Switch. Nothing to install.
generate_image 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 generate_image 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 generate_image. 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.
generate_image is provided by the Switch MCP server (https://mcp.switchapp.ai/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
