What renew_app does on Deloc
AI agents use renew_app to create or update resources in Deloc, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Deloc environment.
Why renew_app is rated Medium
Renewing an app extends its availability or trial period, modifying app state in a reversible manner. This falls under Write rather than Financial (no money moves) or Destructive (no data is deleted). The severity is medium because unintended renewals could extend service commitments or affect quota/resource allocation, but the effect is limited to a single app and reversible.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'renew_app' and description 'Extend a free-tier app' indicate modification of app lifecycle/subscription state.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs renew_app safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Deloc, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For renew_app, this is the rule to start with:
renew_app 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Deloc, apply this rule, and every renew_app call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about renew_app
Extend a free-tier app. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Deloc MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Deloc MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for renew_app: 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 Deloc. Nothing to install.
renew_app is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the renew_app 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for renew_app. 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.
renew_app is provided by the Deloc MCP server (delocdev/deloc-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
