What set_capacity_override does on Businys
AI agents use set_capacity_override to create or update resources in Businys, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Businys environment.
Why set_capacity_override is rated Medium
This tool modifies business-critical data (session capacity constraints) that affects operations, scheduling, and potentially revenue. While reversible (the override can be removed), it impacts how many clients can be booked into a session and could lead to overbooking, safety issues, or scheduling conflicts if misused.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Override max attendees for a specific session date+time', which modifies capacity settings for a session. The verb 'override' indicates changing an existing configuration.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs set_capacity_override safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Businys, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For set_capacity_override, this is the rule to start with:
set_capacity_override 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 Businys, apply this rule, and every set_capacity_override call is checked against it from then on.

Register the Businys MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for set_capacity_override: 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 Businys. Nothing to install.
set_capacity_override 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 set_capacity_override 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 set_capacity_override. 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.
