# set_attention_budget Set the founder's attention budget — the maximum pending review cards before they are 'overloaded' (a whole number 1–100; default 7) — for a manager or the founder. Use when the founder (or a manager on their behalf) wants to raise or lower their overload threshold (e.g. "set my overload threshold to 10", "I can handle more pending cards before you flag me", "lower my attention budget to 5"). This is the founder's OWN constraint, so it is gated: an autonomous agent CANNOT change it (surface a recommendation instead); only a human-present company manager can. Always call get_attention_budget first and explain why a change helps the founder. [sensitive-tier — first use may require a manager's approval; a from-now-on approval makes future calls seamless, a just-once approval re-asks next time.] Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `set_attention_budget`.

Although gated to human managers and explicitly blocked from autonomous agents, the tool still modifies organizational state (the founder's attention management threshold). From the tool's own definition: "Tool sets a numeric threshold (1–100) for 'founder's attention budget' — a configuration value. Description states 'Use when the founder (or a manager on their behalf) wants to raise or lower their overload threshold', indicating persistent modification of…" ## Use case AI agents use set_attention_budget to create or update resources in Freedom Mcp, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context.
