WHAT IT DOES

What design_visual_review does on Eda Agent

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

RISK

Why design_visual_review is rated Low

The name implies a read/review operation (visual inspection of a design), which maps to the Read category. However, the empty description lowers confidence significantly. Given the server context (Altium Designer automation), a visual review is most likely non-destructive and retrieves/renders design information. Severity is medium due to potential exposure of sensitive PCB/schematic design IP.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'design_visual_review' suggests reviewing/inspecting a design visually; description is empty and uninformative.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs design_visual_review safely

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

design_visual_review Allowed

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

  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "design_visual_review": {}
  }
}

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

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Eda Agent, apply this rule, and every design_visual_review call is checked against it from then on.
