RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs demo_open_app safely

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

demo_open_app Rate-limited

demo_open_app stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
