WHAT IT DOES

What route_plan does on Eda Agent

AI agents invoke route_plan 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.

RISK

Why route_plan is rated High

In PCB EDA context, 'route_plan' most likely triggers automated PCB routing or planning operations, which constitutes executing an external operation in the design tool. However, the empty description significantly reduces confidence. Given the server's mention of 'connectivity-driven auto-placement' and routing automation, this is likely an Execute-category action.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'route_plan' on an Altium Designer MCP server with PCB automation capabilities; description is empty.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

route_plan Rate-limited

route_plan 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 route_plan call is checked against it from then on.

How do I enforce a policy on route_plan? +

Register the Eda Agent MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for route_plan: 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 route_plan? +

route_plan is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit route_plan? +

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