What proj_create does on Altium-MCP-Suite
AI agents use proj_create to create or update resources in Altium-MCP-Suite, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Altium-MCP-Suite environment.
Why proj_create is rated Medium
proj_create most likely creates new Altium Designer projects. This is a Write operation (reversible creation of data/artifacts). Severity is high because uncontrolled project creation in an autonomous agent context could overwrite important design files or pollute the project workspace, especially given the server mentions an 'autonomous design-plan executor.' The empty description and reliance on inference lowers…
From the tool's definition Tool name 'proj_create' with context of Altium Designer project automation; part of a suite with 290+ tools for 'project automation' and persistent design bridge. Description is empty but naming and server context indicate creation of projects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs proj_create safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Altium-MCP-Suite, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For proj_create, this is the rule to start with:
proj_create 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 Altium-MCP-Suite, apply this rule, and every proj_create call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about proj_create
proj_create is a write tool on the Altium-MCP-Suite MCP server. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Altium-MCP-Suite MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Altium-MCP-Suite MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for proj_create: 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 Altium-MCP-Suite. Nothing to install.
proj_create 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 proj_create 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 proj_create. 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.
proj_create is provided by the Altium-MCP-Suite MCP server (M-R-Abedini/Altium-MCP-Suite). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
