The rule that runs complete-pending-auth safely

complete-pending-auth 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 Frontmcp, apply this rule, and every complete-pending-auth call is checked against it from then on.
