WHAT IT DOES

What upload_svg does on Ha Nexus Agent

AI agents use upload_svg to create or update resources in Ha Nexus Agent, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Ha Nexus Agent environment.

RISK

Why upload_svg is rated Medium

Without description, classification relies on the name alone. 'Upload' typically implies writing or creating files in the system. Given the Home Assistant context (smart home control), SVG uploads could modify dashboard/UI configuration files. This is reversible (files can be deleted/overwritten), so Write rather than Destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool named 'upload_svg' with empty description suggests file upload operation; 'upload' indicates data creation/modification.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs upload_svg safely

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

upload_svg Rate-limited

upload_svg 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.
