RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs update_blog_post safely

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

update_blog_post Rate-limited

update_blog_post 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": {
    "update_blog_post": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "update_blog_post_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 Ghl, apply this rule, and every update_blog_post call is checked against it from then on.
