The rule that runs clean_transcript safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Cutpilot, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For clean_transcript, this is the rule to start with:
clean_transcript is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Cutpilot, apply this rule, and every clean_transcript call is checked against it from then on.
