The rule that runs federation_publish safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Hamza Agent Hub 252, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For federation_publish, this is the rule to start with:

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Hamza Agent Hub 252, apply this rule, and every federation_publish call is checked against it from then on.
