What run-luau does on Executor Mcp Roblox
AI agents invoke run-luau to trigger actions in Executor Mcp Roblox. 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 run-luau is rated High
run-luau triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs run-luau safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Executor Mcp Roblox, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For run-luau, this is the rule to start with:
run-luau 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 Executor Mcp Roblox, apply this rule, and every run-luau call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about run-luau
Execute arbitrary Luau in the active Roblox client and return its first returned value (decoded from JSON). It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Executor Mcp Roblox MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Executor Mcp Roblox MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for run-luau: 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 Executor Mcp Roblox. Nothing to install.
run-luau 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 run-luau 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 run-luau. 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.
run-luau is provided by the Executor Mcp Roblox MCP server (okenjioxx/executor-mcp-roblox). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
