AI agents invoke reporting_guide to trigger processes or run actions in Senzing. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.

reporting_guide can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. PolicyLayer enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.

Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

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

What does the reporting_guide tool do? +

Guided reporting and visualization for Senzing entity resolution results. Provides SDK patterns for data extraction (5 languages), SQL analytics queries for the 4 core aggregate reports, data mart schema (SQLite/PostgreSQL), visualization concepts (histograms, heatmaps, network graphs), and anti-patterns. Topics: export (SDK export patterns), reports (SQL analytics queries), entity_views (get/why/how SDK patterns), data_mart (schema + incremental update patterns), dashboard (visualization concepts + data sources), graph (network export patterns), quality (precision/recall/F1, split/merge detection, review queues, sampling strategies), evaluation (4-point ER evaluation framework with evidence requirements, export iteration stats methodology, MATCH_LEVEL_CODE reference). Returns decision trees when language/scale not specified.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Senzing MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on reporting_guide? +

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

What risk level is reporting_guide? +

reporting_guide is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit reporting_guide? +

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

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

reporting_guide is provided by the Senzing MCP server (https://mcp.senzing.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 Senzing tool call.
