What pcb_tune_length does on Eda Agent
AI agents invoke pcb_tune_length to trigger actions in Eda Agent. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why pcb_tune_length is rated High
The tool name 'pcb_tune_length' suggests it modifies PCB trace lengths (length tuning is a PCB design operation that adjusts routing to match signal timing constraints). This is a Write/Execute operation on PCB design data. Given the empty description, confidence is low, but based on context of the Altium Designer MCP server with 290+ PCB automation tools, this likely modifies existing routing data.
From the tool's definition Tool name: pcb_tune_length; description is empty/uninformative.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs pcb_tune_length 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_tune_length, this is the rule to start with:
pcb_tune_length stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times 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_tune_length call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about pcb_tune_length
pcb_tune_length is a execute tool on the Eda Agent MCP server. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Eda Agent MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Eda Agent MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for pcb_tune_length: 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_tune_length is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the pcb_tune_length 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_tune_length. 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_tune_length 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.
