WHAT IT DOES

What vectorize_image does on Tanod

AI agents use vectorize_image to create or update resources in Tanod, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Tanod environment.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`url`	object	—	Public http(s) URL of the image (at most 10 MB; private, internal and IP-literal hosts are refused); or use image_base64.
`output`	string	—	base64 (default): inline. url: stored for 24 hours; link, metadata.
`max_side`	integer	—	Trace at most this many pixels per side; also capped at 262144 pixels. Never upscales.
`color_mode`	string	—	Color paths, or black-and-white line art (luminance threshold 128).
`image_base64`	object	—	The image as standard or url-safe base64 (at most 10 MB decoded; a data:image/...;base64, prefix is fine); or use url.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why vectorize_image is rated Medium

An AI agent can call vectorize_image faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Tanod by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs vectorize_image 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 vectorize_image, this is the rule to start with:

vectorize_image Rate-limited

vectorize_image 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 Tanod, apply this rule, and every vectorize_image call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about vectorize_image

What does the vectorize_image tool do? +

imagepeek: Vectorize a raster image to SVG paths. Returns traces a PNG, JPEG or WebP logo, icon or diagram into filled SVG paths using VTracer (MIT). Approximate; not OCR. 10 MB/40 MP input; trace <=262144 pixels. Alpha becomes white. SVG <=2 MB/2000 paths, script-free. text/plain; save as .svg. output=url keeps the result 24 hours. Failures not charged; images not logged.. Up to 45 s. Price: USD 0.005. No free tier. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Tanod MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

What parameters does vectorize_image accept? +

vectorize_image accepts 5 parameters: url, output, max_side, color_mode, image_base64. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on vectorize_image? +

Register the Tanod MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for vectorize_image: 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 Tanod. Nothing to install.

What risk level is vectorize_image? +

vectorize_image is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit vectorize_image? +

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

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

vectorize_image is provided by the Tanod MCP server (https://tanod.dev/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
