PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Amazon Redshift MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for esm_kafka_resolution:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"esm_kafka_resolution": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "esm_kafka_resolution_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 60,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} esm_kafka_resolution gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
