Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs add_gear_item safely

add_gear_item Rate-limited

add_gear_item 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.
