WHAT IT DOES

What seal_artifact does on Deepadata Edm

AI agents use seal_artifact to create or update resources in Deepadata Edm, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Deepadata Edm environment.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`save`	boolean	—	Whether to save the envelope to local storage
`pathway`	string	—	Issuance pathway (default: delegated)
`artifact`	object	Yes	The EDM artifact to seal (spec shape: meta + core domains, meta.version set). Passed to the platform verbatim.
`authority`	string	—	Authority identifier (e.g., "app:your-platform"). Defaults to "mcp:edm-server"

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why seal_artifact is rated Medium

Sealing creates a new certified artifact envelope and a registry entry, which are write operations. However, sealing typically implies locking/finalizing an artifact making it immutable, which could have irreversible consequences.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs seal_artifact safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Deepadata Edm, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For seal_artifact, this is the rule to start with:

seal_artifact Rate-limited

seal_artifact stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Questions about seal_artifact

What does the seal_artifact tool do? +

Seal an EDM artifact via DeepaData API, creating a certified .ddna envelope with registry entry. Requires DEEPADATA_API_KEY environment variable. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Deepadata Edm MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

What parameters does seal_artifact accept? +

seal_artifact accepts 4 parameters: save, pathway, artifact, authority. Required: artifact. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on seal_artifact? +

Register the Deepadata Edm MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for seal_artifact: 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 Deepadata Edm. Nothing to install.

What risk level is seal_artifact? +

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

Can I rate-limit seal_artifact? +

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

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

seal_artifact is provided by the Deepadata Edm MCP server (deepadata-edm-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
