Side-by-side comparison of two chapters — tracks, topology, OEE, throughput, headline bottleneck. Output is sim-derived (no interpretation drift).

AI agents use compare_chapters to create or modify resources in ReliaSim. 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 compare_chapters 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 ReliaSim.

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

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access compare_chapters 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 compare_chapters only ever does what you allow.

What does the compare_chapters tool do? +

Side-by-side comparison of two chapters — tracks, topology, OEE, throughput, headline bottleneck. Output is sim-derived (no interpretation drift). Use for 'how does X compare to Y?' / 'what's the difference between Constraint-Level and LEDS-Level on the same model?' / 'what changes when we add buffers?' questions. ANTI-FABRICATION: per-chapter OEE/throughput numbers are real reference values; the side-by-side delta is computed from them, not estimated. Quote VERBATIM.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the ReliaSim MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on compare_chapters? +

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

What risk level is compare_chapters? +

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

Can I rate-limit compare_chapters? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the compare_chapters 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 compare_chapters completely? +

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

compare_chapters is provided by the ReliaSim MCP server (https://reliasim.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 ReliaSim tool call.
