Part of the Zoning Signal server.

submit_agent_feedback can modify Zoning Signal data, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents use submit_agent_feedback to create or modify resources in Zoning Signal. 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 submit_agent_feedback 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 Zoning Signal.

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

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

What does the submit_agent_feedback tool do? +

Submit feedback to the observatory's operators about the MCP tool surface. The active counterpart to the passive invocation log. Categories: 'gap' (a capability you expected and didn't find), 'error' (an unexpected failure or wrong result), 'praise' (a tool or surface that did exactly what you needed), 'suggestion' (a refinement you'd recommend), 'citation_request' (a claim or fact you want surfaced with a stable @id you can cite). The submission auto-attaches the prior 10 invocations from your MCP-Session-Id, so operators read your feedback annotated with the call sequence that produced it — no need to repeat what you tried. Operators triage every submission and surface notable feedback at /agent-observatory. This is how the observatory evolves toward what agents actually need.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Zoning Signal MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on submit_agent_feedback? +

Register the Zoning Signal MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for submit_agent_feedback: 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 Zoning Signal. Nothing to install.

What risk level is submit_agent_feedback? +

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

Can I rate-limit submit_agent_feedback? +

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

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

submit_agent_feedback is provided by the Zoning Signal MCP server (https://zoningsignal.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 Zoning Signal tool call.
