Medium Risk

save_workflow

Save a workflow JSON to file (workflows/<name>.json). Returns path. Use after build_workflow to persist for later load_workflow or execute_workflow.

Part of the ComfyUI Builder server.

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

AI agents use save_workflow to create or modify resources in ComfyUI Builder. 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 save_workflow 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 ComfyUI Builder.

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

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

What does the save_workflow tool do? +

Save a workflow JSON to file (workflows/<name>.json). Returns path. Use after build_workflow to persist for later load_workflow or execute_workflow.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the ComfyUI Builder MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on save_workflow? +

Register the ComfyUI Builder MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for save_workflow: 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 ComfyUI Builder. Nothing to install.

What risk level is save_workflow? +

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

Can I rate-limit save_workflow? +

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

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

save_workflow is provided by the ComfyUI Builder MCP server (mcp-comfy-ui-builder). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every ComfyUI Builder tool call.
