AI agents use resolve_assembly_from_description to create or modify resources in Civilquants. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call resolve_assembly_from_description repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Civilquants.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so resolve_assembly_from_description only ever does what you allow.

What does the resolve_assembly_from_description tool do? +

Resolve a plain-English job description to candidate catalogue assemblies and the fields you'll need to compute one. Deterministic router — it does NOT return a Bill of Quantities and NEVER guesses parameter values; it returns candidate slugs (plural when ambiguous, with clarifying questions), each assembly's tier, whether it supports compute_multi_section_assembly, and per-field metadata (unit, min/max, default). Then call compute_<slug> (or compute_multi_section_assembly) with the values you fill in. Also known as compute_from_description. Example: {"description":"a 3 m deep manhole","preferred_standard":"MMHW"}.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Civilquants MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on resolve_assembly_from_description? +

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

What risk level is resolve_assembly_from_description? +

resolve_assembly_from_description is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit resolve_assembly_from_description? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the resolve_assembly_from_description 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.

How do I block resolve_assembly_from_description completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for resolve_assembly_from_description. 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.

What MCP server provides resolve_assembly_from_description? +

resolve_assembly_from_description is provided by the Civilquants MCP server (https://api.civilquants.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Civilquants tool call.
