resolve_location

Resolve a free-text location (city, airport, hotel, station, full address) to a canonical address + coordinates, using the same geocoder that Zeplan consumes for bookings. Use this BEFORE get_quote when the customer gives a fuzzy pickup/drop-off (e.g. 'CDG', 'Le Bristol', 'Gare du Nord', raw GPS)...

AI agents use resolve_location to create or modify resources in Booking. 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_location 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 Booking.

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

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access resolve_location gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

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

What does the resolve_location tool do? +

Resolve a free-text location (city, airport, hotel, station, full address) to a canonical address + coordinates, using the same geocoder that Zeplan consumes for bookings. Use this BEFORE get_quote when the customer gives a fuzzy pickup/drop-off (e.g. 'CDG', 'Le Bristol', 'Gare du Nord', raw GPS). Returns up to 5 candidates with place_id, full address, type hint, and optionally coordinates.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Booking 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_location? +

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

What risk level is resolve_location? +

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

Can I rate-limit resolve_location? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the resolve_location 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_location completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for resolve_location. 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_location? +

resolve_location is provided by the Booking MCP server (https://mcp-mydriverparis.mydriverparis.workers.dev/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Booking tool call.
