WHAT IT DOES

What connect_connector does on Hermoso

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

RISK

Why connect_connector is rated Medium

An AI agent can call connect_connector faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Hermoso by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs connect_connector safely

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

connect_connector Rate-limited

connect_connector 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.
