WHAT IT DOES

What edit_lesson_page does on Moodle

AI agents use edit_lesson_page 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.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`embed`	array	—	Absolute local files to embed in the contents, answers or responses
`title`	string	—
`fields`	object	—	Any other field of the page's form, by name (layout, display…)
`pageId`	integer	Yes	The page's id, as get_lesson_pages gives it
`answers`	array	—	A question page's answers, in order (given, they replace them all); an essay or structural page's single row
`buttons`	array	—	A content page's buttons, in order; given, they replace them all
`contents`	string	—	The page's contents (HTML); local files it names (<img src="shot.png">) go in embed
`lessonId`	integer	Yes	The lesson's id (course module id), as get_course_structure gives it
`caseSensitive`	boolean	—	Short answer: answers compared case-sensitively
`multipleAnswers`	boolean	—	Multichoice: more than one answer can be right

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs edit_lesson_page safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Moodle, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For edit_lesson_page, this is the rule to start with:

edit_lesson_page Rate-limited

edit_lesson_page 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.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "edit_lesson_page": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "edit_lesson_page_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

LIMIT THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Moodle, apply this rule, and every edit_lesson_page call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about edit_lesson_page

What does the edit_lesson_page tool do? +

Change a lesson's page through its form in the lesson editor: title, contents, buttons or answers (given, they replace them all), options and other fields; only what is given changes, and a page keeps its type. A jump to a page the lesson doesn't have is refused before anything is saved. Changes the course: confirm with the person first. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Moodle MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

What parameters does edit_lesson_page accept? +

edit_lesson_page accepts 10 parameters: embed, title, fields, pageId, answers, buttons, contents, lessonId, caseSensitive, multipleAnswers. Required: pageId, lessonId. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on edit_lesson_page? +

Register the Moodle MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for edit_lesson_page: 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 Moodle. Nothing to install.

What risk level is edit_lesson_page? +

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

Can I rate-limit edit_lesson_page? +

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

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