Why set_dmarc_policy is rated Medium
This tool modifies email authentication settings (DMARC policies) which affects email deliverability and security posture but is reversible. While the consequences of misconfiguration could be severe (email rejection, spam filtering), the action itself is Write-level as it can be undone. It does not execute arbitrary code, is not destructive in the irreversible sense, and has no financial impact.

The rule that runs set_dmarc_policy safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and 20i MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For set_dmarc_policy, this is the rule to start with:
set_dmarc_policy 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 20i MCP Server, apply this rule, and every set_dmarc_policy call is checked against it from then on.
