The rule that runs list_api_keys safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and agentView, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For list_api_keys, this is the rule to start with:
list_api_keys is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect agentView, apply this rule, and every list_api_keys call is checked against it from then on.
