WHAT IT DOES

What decide does on Gemot Deliberation Server

AI agents call decide to retrieve information from Gemot Deliberation Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why decide is rated Low

Even though decide only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs decide safely

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

decide Allowed

decide is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "decide": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Gemot Deliberation Server, apply this rule, and every decide call is checked against it from then on.

How do I enforce a policy on decide? +

Register the Gemot Deliberation Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for decide: 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 Gemot Deliberation Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is decide? +

decide is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit decide? +

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

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

decide is provided by the Gemot Deliberation Server MCP server (https://gemot.dev/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
