RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs update_status_page_announcement safely

update_status_page_announcement Rate-limited

update_status_page_announcement 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.
