What pcb_lock_net_routing does on Eda Agent
AI agents use pcb_lock_net_routing to create or update resources in Eda Agent, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Eda Agent environment.
Why pcb_lock_net_routing is rated Medium
Based on the tool name alone, 'lock_net_routing' suggests it modifies the lock state of net routing on a PCB, which is a reversible write operation. However, with no description available, confidence is low. Locking net routing would prevent further modifications to routed nets, which is a reversible state change (can be unlocked).
From the tool's definition Tool name: pcb_lock_net_routing — description is empty and uninformative
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs pcb_lock_net_routing 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 pcb_lock_net_routing, this is the rule to start with:
pcb_lock_net_routing 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 Eda Agent, apply this rule, and every pcb_lock_net_routing call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about pcb_lock_net_routing
pcb_lock_net_routing is a write tool on the Eda Agent MCP server. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Eda Agent MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Eda Agent MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for pcb_lock_net_routing: 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 Eda Agent. Nothing to install.
pcb_lock_net_routing is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the pcb_lock_net_routing 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for pcb_lock_net_routing. 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.
pcb_lock_net_routing is provided by the Eda Agent MCP server (salitronic/eda-agent). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
