WHAT IT DOES

What format_table does on Hwpx

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

RISK

Why format_table is rated Medium

This tool modifies document content by applying formatting to tables within HWPX documents. It is reversible (formatting can be changed or undone), making it a Write operation rather than Destructive. The severity is medium because unintended table formatting could impact document structure and readability, but the operation is not irreversible.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'format_table' and description states it applies table formatting (표 서식을 적용합니다). The `dry_run` parameter indicates it can modify document tables; when `dry_run=False` (default), changes are persisted to the original document.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs format_table safely

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

format_table Rate-limited

format_table 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.
