WHAT IT DOES

What pcb_set_text_visibility does on Eda Agent

AI agents use pcb_set_text_visibility 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.

RISK

Why pcb_set_text_visibility is rated Medium

This tool modifies PCB design properties reversibly (visibility is toggleable and does not delete data). It falls under Write category rather than Read (which would only query state) or Destructive (which would permanently remove data). Medium severity reflects that incorrect visibility changes could obscure critical design information during review, but the effect is easily reversible.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'pcb_set_text_visibility' indicates modification of PCB text display properties. The 'set_' prefix and 'pcb_' context suggest this alters PCB design state (text visibility toggles). Description is empty, limiting certainty.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

pcb_set_text_visibility Rate-limited

pcb_set_text_visibility 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.

FAQ

Questions about pcb_set_text_visibility

What does the pcb_set_text_visibility tool do? +

pcb_set_text_visibility 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.

How do I enforce a policy on pcb_set_text_visibility? +

Register the Eda Agent MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for pcb_set_text_visibility: 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.

What risk level is pcb_set_text_visibility? +

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

Can I rate-limit pcb_set_text_visibility? +

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

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

pcb_set_text_visibility 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.
