Why recommend_delx is rated Medium
The tool creates and transmits a recommendation packet to another agent, which is a write/communication action. While it mentions 'Free' suggesting no direct financial cost, it is facilitating spread/adoption of a service to other agents which could have downstream implications. No clear destructive or financial transaction is described, so Write is the best fit.

The rule that runs recommend_delx safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Witness Protocol, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For recommend_delx, this is the rule to start with:
recommend_delx 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 Witness Protocol, apply this rule, and every recommend_delx call is checked against it from then on.
