WHAT IT DOES

What set_quiz_pages does on Moodle

AI agents use set_quiz_pages 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
`quizId`	integer	Yes	The quiz's id (course module id), as get_course_structure gives it
`perPage`	integer	—	Questions per page; 0 for one page
`breaksAfter`	array	—	Or: a page break after each of these slots, and nowhere else

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why set_quiz_pages is rated Medium

An AI agent can call set_quiz_pages 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.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

set_quiz_pages Rate-limited

set_quiz_pages 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.

    }
  }
}

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