# configure Set this server's configuration for this session: the Moodle site (url; a new one is added to the server's sites and kept, a known one becomes active, see use_site), whether the browser runs without a window (headless), how student tools view and do things (trail) and the browser profile folder (profileDir). It can also narrow the kinds of tools (scopes), the role (role) or access to read only (access) and tighten how others' data reaches you (studentData), never the other way: widening is the person's, in the client's configuration. Each is optional; only those given change. The URL is checked to be a Moodle site. Kept in memory only, but for a new site, which stays among the server's sites. Returns the effective configuration, as server_info. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `configure`.

Only stricter than now, never looser | Parameters from the server's own tool schema. ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "configure", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why configure is rated Medium An AI agent can call configure faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Moodle by the hundred, each call as confident as the last. Risk signals: Accepts URL/endpoint input (url) ## Use case AI agents use configure to create or update resources in Moodle, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Moodle environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Moodle: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "configure": { "limits": [ { "counter": "configure_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on Moodle (232) - `delete_activity` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-activity.md - `delete_book_chapter` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-book-chapter.md - `delete_database_entry` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-database-entry.md - `delete_database_field` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-database-field.md - `delete_event` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-event.md - `delete_feedback_item` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-feedback-item.md - `delete_feedback_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-feedback-template.md - `delete_glossary_entry` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-glossary-entry.md - `delete_grade_category` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-grade-category.md - `delete_grade_item` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-grade-item.md - `delete_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-group.md - `delete_grouping` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-grouping.md - `delete_lesson_page` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-lesson-page.md - `delete_post` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-post.md - `delete_question_category` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-question-category.md - `delete_questions` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-questions.md - `delete_section` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-section.md - `delete_workshop_example` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/delete-workshop-example.md - `override_workshop_grade` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/override-workshop-grade.md - `remove_quiz_slot` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/remove-quiz-slot.md - `remove_site` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/remove-site.md - `remove_workshop_reviewer` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/remove-workshop-reviewer.md - `reset_course` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/reset-course.md - `unenrol_user` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/unenrol-user.md - `browser_navigate` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/browser-navigate.md - `browser_wait` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/browser-wait.md - `enrol_users` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/enrol-users.md - `grade_forum_user` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/grade-forum-user.md - `rate` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/rate.md - `start_quiz_attempt` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp/start-quiz-attempt.md - …and 202 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/falkenslab-moodle-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
