RISK

Why theprotocol_importAgent is rated Medium

Although the description includes a DESTRUCTIVE tag, the operation itself—importing an agent configuration from a snapshot—is a reversible creation or modification of data. This falls under Write rather than Destructive. However, if 'import' can overwrite existing agent configurations without warning or recovery options, severity could escalate to high.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'import agent configuration (creates from snapshot)' — the word 'creates' indicates data creation/modification.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs theprotocol_importAgent safely

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

theprotocol_importAgent Rate-limited

theprotocol_importAgent 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.
