WHAT IT DOES

What ws_generate_server does on Plugin Hub

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

RISK

Why ws_generate_server is rated Medium

An AI agent can call ws_generate_server faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Plugin Hub by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs ws_generate_server safely

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

ws_generate_server Rate-limited

ws_generate_server 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.

          "max": 30,

        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

LIMIT THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Plugin Hub, apply this rule, and every ws_generate_server call is checked against it from then on.
