RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs upload_file_get_link safely

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

upload_file_get_link Rate-limited

upload_file_get_link 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.
