The rule that runs generate_form_from_metadata safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and 1c Formsserver, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For generate_form_from_metadata, this is the rule to start with:
generate_form_from_metadata 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.
